In response to: . . .the living touch of another human being.
When tragedy strikes, we fight to understand why. Something may strike out of nowhere and turn our lives around. We would like to believe that there is some way to explain tragedy. We think that if we could explain it, maybe we could protect ourselves. We wonder if we are being punished. Has an uncaring God abandoned us? We may believe that if God cared, no tragedy would happen.
This is not always a just world. But if we let God be there for us, listening to our rage at injustice and comforting our tears, we can recover, move on, and know that we are not alone. God is with us in the words and the living touch of another human being. We may want to retreat within ourselves when tragedy strikes. This is not a bad or wrong feeling, but it is still important to let others be with us. Time spent with friends and family, and prayer time with our Higher Power, helps us realize that we are not alone in our grief.
Remember a painful time and tell others what helped you get through it........

Some things are not meant to be understood by us pitiful humans, case in point....the loss of my Mother to cancer at an early age. She passed 17 yrs ago, a deeply religious and devout woman whose words of teaching fell upon my deaf ears. I raged at God for the loss and I am still here. One would have thought he would have struck me down as well for the way I spoke. I have since come to believe He truly is all forgiving!! And that He was after all there with me in my grief

I've had more than my share
I've got through them alone
except for this most recent one, my sons have been by my side.. But I still have to pretty much deal with it alone.
I don't care to be with others during difficult and for myself, disagree with that part of your statement.
I don't care to discuss them either & avoid people who do.
I remember those who brought those times to me. And not in a good way.
