"The Advocate"
This is not about rescue, so as to feel good when the child lights up with a smile. This is not about the comfort of compassion. This is hard work, struggling with ripped families and children in clouds of pain, anger dancing round their heart in the turmoil of a world made crazy. This is caring, yes, but also what is just, what should be demanded.
It takes love and a certain measure of courage, and in the simple act of person helping person, it becomes extraordinary. |
