Mixed Feelings

But blessings that rain down.

I still don't know what the problem was. Perhaps a combination of a strained something, and a paranoid mind and stress?

Whatever happens though, I don't know why or how but God always sends someone to be with me.
On the other hand, I feel a little guilty for making people worry for me. It might be a little random but when an old friend of mine offered to come with me today, it genuinely put a smile on my face. We haven't been talking in so long, and that gesture made me think that God sends angels around me all the time so that even when I'm hurt I don't have to walk it alone. That friend probably thought I was being melodramatic though, but then again...it's been a week, at the start of the week I was definitely not being dramatic (i.e. my foot was in some bad pain)! And actually, to be honest this experience has helped me develop yet another area of empathy. I truly believe that you can't empathise with something you have not personally experienced. Perhaps you can empathise but it wouldn't be at a genuine level, because only those who have experienced the same pain and loss can understand how someone else might feel.

It's strange, because I remember two people at separate occasions of my life who have unexpectedly both come up to me to tell me that my greatest strength is mercy. And there are many things in life that have happened that have moulded my perspective to be able to understand people's pain from a deeper level. I'm still trying to fully grasp the concept of true empathy, and unconditional respect for what others feel.

Oh well, it's Friday and I'm exhausted. Mentally, physically drained. Exactly one week left till I get a change of climate and see my closest ones!
