I ran into my friend Sally Spencer (Beach Walk 528) and we got to talking about the broken hearts show (Beach Walk 668) and how compelling “victim energy” can be. And also how it can weaken a person, both body and spirit. It takes a special understanding to be compassionate and encouraging at the same time, rather than slipping into pity. Pity does not empower, in my book.

“It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence to be ever in view, which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words: ‘AND THIS TOO, SHALL PASS.’
How much it expresses! How chastening it is in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction”
I agree, Buddy – and with Rox as well …
