when I get down on myself (what have I done for the world?) people tell me to look at my children. Your message reminds me that we are, all 4 of us, remarkably blessed. A little pool of grace in an oft-wounded and wounding world.
It is wonderfully gratifying to know you can feel close and comfortable and independent with us (the parentals). Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy :)
And if you continue to hurt for those you love, you will continue to grow as a deeply wonderful soul. Sometimes the most kind thing you can say to someone is: "I wish I could make it better, but I know there's nothing I can do, and I care about you."
