One of the hardest things to deal with is when one you love is hurting. You want to help, you want to soothe, you want to wave that magic wand and make everything ok. Every cell in your body yearns to take the pain away and make it all better. You offer words of wisdom hoping that your chosen string of words will do the trick. You offer support so the one hurting will know they aren't alone in their troubles, that you'll be there for them, no matter what. You try to be funny hoping to raise just one little smile. You try to be positive hoping they will see that it's not all gloom & doom. You try until you can't think of anything else to try and then you try again. Ultimately, though, you realize that along the way, the magic wand has been broken, the crystal ball is cracked and the hugs and kisses that once soothed every bump and bruise, mended broken hearts and made the boogie monster run away screaming in terror, aren't enough anymore. You take a deep breath, stiffen your spine and........
You Try Again!!!
