Marvel at your life; at the mistakes that gave you wisdom, at the suffering that gave you strength. Despite everything, you still move forward, be proud of this. Continue to endure. Continue to persevere. And remember, no matter how dark it gets, the sun will rise again.

Of course not! You help them change their batteries. Some need AA… attention and affection; some need AAA… attention, affection, and acceptance; some need C…. compassion; some need D… direction. And if they still don’t seem to shine… simply sit with them quietly and share your light.
