FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Mourning is a part of life. Comfort comes when we pour out our grief through tears and allow a friend to meet us in the midst of it. -DPD, page 289

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: We give our friends a tremendous gift when we're available to listen and mourn with them. - DPD, page 199

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: The most valued friends are often "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" (Henri Nouwen) -DPD, page 141
