I have so much to say, but no matter how I try to form them, the words don't come out right. Nothing I say could possibly change what's going on in our world around us. Nothing I do, no matter how hard I try, I can't take away others pain, their sorrow, what they have gone through, the tragic loss they have suffered...and with that knowledge my hearts breaks. It breaks because for those who have lost someone, I am with them, I know how you yearn for that piece of you that is missing. For those who feel this world is too intolerable to bare and that escaping is the only way out, I can feel their pain. I witnessed it first hand. I yearn to make them feel better, even if that means taking their own pain off their shoulders and on to mine...This is why I am devoting my career, my life, my whole being into helping others and it hurts knowing that I might not make a difference. Yet, I get a renewed strength when I breath in and I know that without trying, without persevering, without doing, I will not know if I could have made a difference.
Personally I believe the rule to helping someone overcome pain, to save someones life, this huge act in balance can amazingly enough be rather simply put: find a way to reduce their inner pain.
Our mentality of those who are suffering, those who are enduring pain, should not be that of what is wrong with them, being sympathetic is not enough.... instead it should be how can I help you fix this situation and how can I help you hurt less?
