Quiet Thoughts

If a person shares something very personal with you, (listen) to them (without) responding. STOP saying ( I understand), because unless you've walked in that person shoes, you DON'T understand. We must learn to LISTEN, be patient, DON'T try giving advise, and comfort them(without) insulting them by saying you understand. It's far more ways to comfort a person without lying to them. Perhaps you can start by simply being quiet and lending a listening ear, offering support by way of physical comfort. Because whether you know it or not, the electricity our bodies generate by way of hugging, holding hands, or the simplest of touching, generates more support than any words you could ever speak.
