Dear D,
Thank you for sending me a message.
I must say that yours is the most thought-provoking question I’ve ever received since I made my life public through my blog.
I don’t even know how and where to begin.
Pope Francis would be more capable of giving you an answer.
I don’t have any straightforward answer. I can only share with you some of my experiences. And my answers would come in many installments with zero interest.
Your question actually made me teary-eyed. This morning, my shower was mixed with a few drops of tears. Why? Because I couldn’t help but look back and think of the times when I too felt helpless. Then I started thinking about others. I felt for people who were having problems and didn’t know where to go for solace.
My daughter reached a milestone today and my family and I are here in Hawaii upon her request. She arranged for an island tour and a dinner tonight.
I would be able to give you my thoughts in a couple of days because I am so distracted by our activities and couldn’t blog much. Family first.
In the meantime, please be well.
