I just ran across some news about a friend I lost track of twenty or so years ago. She's been having some problems, and those problems caused her to, without meaning to, hurt living beings. It was so painful to see the pain she was in, and the pain she caused others, and how very hard people tried to get her and them help and how the government protected her rights so thoroughly that everyone ended up being hurt, not least her.
I really feel sick and so, so sad.
How can everyone try so hard to help, and how can it be so impossible to help until things get past where help is all that helpful?
