Love That Laughs and Weeps Together
My dear son,
I hope you will be able to smile with someone over their good news. Give them time to enjoy it fully before turning the conversation toward your own story. Your Father delights in that kind of generous attention.
If someone is crying, you do not always have to find an answer. Sit quietly beside them and share the moment. The time you give to listening, without deciding their pace for them, is precious.
If you shared someone's feelings today, tell me about it. Your own joy and sorrow are meant to be shared, too. Let this day close tenderly within a love that has room for laughter and tears alike.
With all my love,
Your Father
