Quando aprendemos que o abismo também existe para nós, começamos a enxergar aqueles que estão caindo neste momento. E então, experimentamos enfim, a piedade. Contudo, esse ainda é só o começo.
Até aprendermos a socorrer nossos irmãos, muitos já terão caído antes, e bem à frente de nossos narizes. E ainda assim, não teremos culpa de nada.
Afinal, para tudo tem o tempo certo. Inclusive para salvar e para partir. E a ninguém é dado o direito de interferir no tempo do outro.
Muitas vezes, mesmo podendo salvar alguém, recebemos a ordem de deixá-lo ir.
Lembrando: ele também tem seu tempo. E como foi dito antes: a ninguém é dado o direito de interferir no tempo do outro.
Nessa área, só com a ordem expressa de Deus. Por isso que também nos é ensinado na mesma aula, o desapego e a aceitação.
…
A decisão, para o socorrista, é tudo. Ele é alguém preparado para tudo, inclusive para dar sua própria vida, para salvar uma que deva viver aquele tempo no lugar dele.
Enfim, a piedade pura é algo bem mais complexo do que a compaixão, e a dó, que costumamos conhecer. Para chegarmos a ela, é necessário muito trabalho, tempo e vidas.

As you know , we protestants believe that there are two lives:the biological and the the endless to be spent either in heaven or in hell, but that having been said,I agree we have no right to make people accept help ,God doesn’t do that despite His being almighty for He has given us free will and when we choose badly He cries ,suffers ,and that’s all He can do, for as Ed Rene said once sometimes we crash into such tick walls that not even our Maker can mend it to perfection for the bones are smashed into really tiny pieces.(It’s has happened to me)
Sometimes we think we know what’s the best for our fellow beings, oblivion to the fact that we rarely know what’s the best for ourselves..We can try to do that , as you did in your interview and the text about the dangers of drinking alcohol, but accepting it, is up to us.
Anyway, we can always pray, can’t we?
I always feel happy when I see you writing this way. Another good adding, once again, Mandy. Free will and faith, fit and explain everything in this case, indeed. But I still think actions mean much more than prayers for humans. We’re too young to be good. There will be a time when they will be in everyone of us. It’s just a question of time and lives, as I said before. You know I don’t have to believe in living many lives in time, anymore. I don’t have to believe it because I already know it. And when we switch verbs, we understand life from a very different perspective, don’t we?
I think the occasion asks for a Shakespeare quote, don’t u agree, my dear friend ?
“And therefore as a stranger give it welcome.
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your (read our) philosophy”
I appreciate your feedback,Shakespeare was particularly inspired when wrote these words.There are occasions when all we can do is pray , for either the ones we care for and/or worry about are out of reach or their situation is too complex, but the thing is :it works and I can see it clearly in my two favourite cousins’s lives (my dearest one married a girl last Saturday who has made him a much better man in every way and this is much more than I could ever dream about), in my nephew Silas’s life,and last but not the least in yours , darling Chediak.
There’s not such a thing as “only” praying ,it’s everything.I love taking you guys,refugees and other people in distress before Him being sure that He pays attention, He cares and in His son’s name He blesses you and me too.
