There are kind souls among us

People who will tolerate our foibles
And smile at us when others frown.
They know, somehow, when to stand back
And when to step forward and embrace us;
When to be silent and when---
To say "I'm with you. It will be ok"

There are kind souls among us

They might relate to not being perfect. Maybe it's a sign of a humble person. They might think with their mind and heart.

I have the reat good fortune to be married to one of them and to know some others personally.

I try to be one of them myself. I don't always succeed, but I intend to keep trying.

And I'm very glad to see you post this
(especially for a significant post number)
because the last few posts of yours that I have read
have sounded kind of down.
