Fact #320: Grieving a little

One of the hardest things we must do sometimes is to be present to another person's pain without trying to fix it, to simply stand respectfully at the edge of that person's mystery and misery. Standing there, we feel useless and powerless. -- Parker J. Palmer
That's how I feel today.
