"The friend who can be silent with us……" — Melchor Lim
"The friend who can be silent with us in a moment ofdespair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of griefand bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing,not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness,that is a friend who cares."
