Storms don't last forever

There's nothing worse than watching someone you love trying to weather a difficult time in their lives.  You feel helpless.  You want to shelter them.  You know they're going to be ok and you just want to comfort them, but there's absolutely nothing you can do but pray for them.  

I hate it more than anything, when I can't help someone I love.  When I can't take even just a fraction of their pain away. It's one of the most frustrating things on earth.
