the people you care about....

what do you tell someone you care about when you find out that the person is not just in physical pain but also emotional pain... not only is it painful but it has been lingering even before u met them... well telling them its going to be alright may just sound patronising and i guarantee u dont want to be seen as patronizing looking at the magnitude of the pain the person is going through. the truth may seem harsh but the mode of delivery of such a heavy news might just suffice... this does not call for diplomacy of any sorts but honesty to oneself and indeed translating this message in as subtle a manner to give ,not hope this time but joy and happiness.... that is the only message that can keep the flame of hope alive even un the most depressed persons... its going to be tough but keep in mind these key words.... the truth, happiness the flame of hope
