Realization, Sense and Trust
It is wonderful that another's expression of sadness or pain isn't at all additive to our own.
In part, it is a small light to the often puzzling quality found in those who find such willingness to work with the sick or dying. And to those who don't know, it isn't morbid - it is beautiful.
I am reminded:
The faithful hand of the living does not desert the hand of the dying
~ Walt Whitman, From: To Think of Time, Book XXIX, Leaves of Grass
