@AskTheDevil I'd say keep praying but that might be awkward. :P

It doesn't seem like much, but hopes and well wishes, combined with thoughtful presence can make a difference.

Thich Nhat Hanh talked a lot about that, being present, and being there to listen to people often did more than offering advice, or solutions. Most people know the way they're going to go, but what they need is the support to find their confidence to push through.
