Compassion is dying .

Read this post by Rowan Hughes On Quora ."My name is Marco. I am a nurse. And today I cried quietly in the hallway. Nobody saw me. Nobody asked if I was okay.

Today I sat next to two patients who were taking their last breath. I held a father in my arms who had just lost his son and felt his pain in my arms. I washed an older man's hair – he looked at me with a tired smile and said, "At least I'm leaving this world clean." He squeezed my hand as if it were his only one. No one from the family came to say goodbye.

Every day I do my best to give care, compassion and warmth to others. But sometimes I easily forget that I'm only human... that I, too, will break.

I don't want any praise. I don't want people to call me a hero.

I just wish someone would say, "Hey Marco."

Maybe then I wouldn't feel quite so alone today.


Sharing is important

“Jesus saves” comes in many forms.

Is it necessary to change my skincare routine with changing seasons or as I age?
I have sensitive, often-dry skin. Would Dermacy’s Ceramide-3 Gentle Cleansing Face Wash be a good fit? I’m looking for something that doesn’t dry me out or break me out."
So much funny so none of the children appeared before man's passage into grave.
