A Real Friend

"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing... not healing, not curing... that is a friend who cares."
-Henri Nouwen

That really makes me think brotha...One of my dearest friends is going through a rough patch and I think maybe I could do more listening.

By the way bro, I changed the url for my blog. The new address is www.burningoutforJesus.blogspot.com

You can also still get to it through my profile.
