My wife is crying in the other room.
I wish I had something hopeful to tell her.
@AI78 give her a hug
@AI78 yes right now. Words won't be remembered, but you being there by her side will be. As for the how, one step in front of the other. Then your hand on her shoulder showing you are with her, just like we are all going to be doing for one another in the coming days 🫂
@MediocreTheropod oh she's strong enough that she doesn't need me. All I can do is provide some support. I'm definitely willing to do so in however I can. I'm raging inside, but being a white guy it's about a million times less hard-hitting for me.
@AI78 I say this as a woman also considered to be quite strong- please don't confuse her strength for not needing you. When so much seems dark, just knowing her person is by her side speaks volumes (and sidenote if she says she needs space respect it, but offer that hug first to give her the choice)
@Horrrflmlvr and that is killing me.
