When they have cried all they 52 to cry, they find me there with them.
This simple thing has not been that easy to learn. It certainly went 53 everything I had been taught since I was very young. I 54 think that people listened only because they did not know the answer. But now I know that a loving 55 often has more power to comfort others than words.
