"Compassion is the ability to see what needs doing right now 
and the willingness to do it right now." (Brad Warner)

     Watching someone you love suffering unbearably in unabated pain - is like watching a big, bad bully beleaguer, beat, and torment that person to tears of desperation - while you can do nothing because the bully is bigger than both of you.  There are not enough tears to wash away the combined pain.  Helpless is an impotent word.  My heart cries to God, "That is my baby!"
     Then, my baby's baby comes forward in love and compassion.
     Such is our Monday.
