Friend
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our
lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice,
solutions, or cures, have chosen to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and
tender hand.
The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or
confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not
knowing, not curing, not healing, and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that
is a friend who cares.
Henri Nouwen
