"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean 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 caring hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in a hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares." Henri Nouwen
