A Woman Weeping in the Darkness & One Who Comforts Her



Could I be as strong for another who weeps in sorrow and terror as was the man speaking softly to the woman in this video?

I have no real point to make, but I wanted to share this video.  I was touched by the strength in the man's voice, the compassion and the calm.  His voice moved me.  The weeping moved me.  The computer which tied them to the whole wide world was pitched forward onto the floor before darkness enveloped the people.  They were cut off from the  world with only each other to provide comfort, care and solace.

 The whole wide world via the internet can be a wonderful place, but sometimes we need to be reminded that when darkness falls, we rely on those closest to us.  Whether we love them, hate them, understand them or not, the realization dawns on us in such dire times that to live, to thrive we must be willing to do for one another what we cannot do for ourselves.
