Thanks Margaret for being humble-and-honest. Most of our attempts in life 'help sometimes.' Actually there was an article in the Wall street Journal I read yesterday how a group of dedicated Christians in Boston are able to help drug addicts Even As the city seems to find it too dangerous to send their health staff. Yes the thing WE need in the prosperous world is what we deeply hunger for: Friends.

And Aristotle reminded us of that long ago.
We may never have enough therapists but we can all TRY to become 'friends'. I've tried to engage with them on streets but they often seem either hesitant -- they are too preoccupied with more urgent needs -- or unable to carry a coherent dialogue. But Try we Must. What else the choice?
