I don’t really like blogging about personal stuff on here, like friends and what not, so I won’t go on too much… but I’ve got a couple of friends who are going through a pretty rough patch at the moment (individually, and together I guess), and I just feel so helpless. I mean, it’s not like I have to be able to help, but I want to be able to help because that’s what friends do. But what do you say to the friend who’s putting on a brave face but falling apart inside? What do you say to the friend who’s so desperate they can’t see the beauty and potential in this world, or in themselves?
I don’t have the answers, but I just hate seeing people I love, suffering. This is all a bit doom and gloom… it’s just hard to say what I mean without saying what I mean (and this isn’t the place). What do you do when you’ve got friends in need, but you don’t know how to help? What do you do when you doubt your role as a friend… doubt your usefulness or even whether you’re doing the right thing by trying to help?
[If either of the people this post is about are reading this, just know that I care, and I'll keep on trying until I can see you getting better... and then I'll try some more.]
