What do you do when a friend is scared and there are no words to comfort him?
LISTEN.

What do you say when you have no advice?
Nothing at all...just LISTEN.

What do you do when you feel powerless to aid a friend in need?
LISTEN...that's worth more than most people know.

Friend,

I will speak out for you if you need a voice. I will listen to what you have to say. I will lend an ear so you feel that you have been heard. When the scariest of times come, I'll be here for you to run to. Whether that means that I have to struggle with you...or at the least sit and listen to you speak and lighten a heavy heart. My troubles are meaningless when you are in need. Speak on. Make a choice. Be heard. Be understood. Do not think that the world will turn on you for something that was out of your hands. I'm sorry bad things happen to good people. You don't deserve to be scared and cornered like that. I'm here for you...
