That's what I'l like when people cry in front of me. I shut up. There's nothing I know to say. I feel like "it's gonna be okay" isn't gonna help. Their fears are stronger than that. I need something more potent.

My natural reaction is to hug the person. There's so much to it; there's so much to even just a little bit of physical contact. I feel like I'm cheating, [hopefully] helping people feel better without so much as a thought or bit of comforting word. Me, I don't like it. I feel useless. Yet there's those people I know who can comfort even Cloud-after-Aeris. J-E-A-L-O-U-S. Share a little wisdom?

To the people I've let down, I'm sorry.
