RejsendeI appreciate Paul's instinct to help especiallyin such a tough situation. That would take me quite some time to "shake it off." It reminds me of a time my mom was traveling and saw someone fall/pass out and needed medical assistance. She talked about how even when she cried out for help, everyone just kept walking by.
RejsendeYou have that right. We have been processing it all day. Paul immediately went into first responder mode, and I stepped back to see how to guard the bags and check on the surrounding people.
RejsendeOh my gosh. That poor man. What an awful piece of tragedy to witness. I’m impressed by Paul’s instinctual reflexes as well. Life is full of so much pain and all feels lost when we forget its infinite joy as well. I don’t see it as a warning. Only an awful reminder of despair in the world, anywhere. I’m so sorry you had to see and feel all of that. May you find good comfort and soothing with each other as you rest on the train today. Love to you both.
RejsendeThank you for your heartfelt response - I do believe there is so much joy in the world, even in tragedies such as these. I send bendiciones (blessings) to this man’s soul, and those who tried to help. Paul was a hero today.
