Lunchtime in Rome

What brings you peace? There is very little peace being offered around our world these days. There is very little relief that comes naturally so we need to find peace...somewhere. Where do you find it...or do you?
The alternative is that you get all balled up and full of anxiety/angst. This is very real and doesn't happen all at once. If this is you I hope some people's answers here brings you peace.

You're stuck. You're in the middle of a huge project and it looks insurmountable. You are pretty sure that you can get it done...pretty sure. However, you're not positive. At this exact moment, your good friend texts you and says, "C'mon, you know you got this! You were made to crush challenges like this!"

How does this find you? Does it push you over the top and get you to finish line? Does it make you want to punch them in the face? Does it make you feel like a failure if you don't make it? Does it not move the needle either way? How do you respond to this friend's text?

When you are hurt the only way to heal is through comfort. Almost all of the options listed in our "poll" the other day are ways you can deal with hurts. However, they don't help you heal from the hurts.
The only thing that does that is comfort. Having someone join you in your pain so that you will remember them loving you when you remember the painful hurt. Comfort has been attached to grief.
How comfortable are you with the idea of that? Do you like it when someone enters your world and joins you in what you're going through? Some don't. There's something tricky about that emotionally and we will go over that this evening.
