The old man grieved because his wife had died. A four-year-old boy who lived next door saw that the man was crying, went into his yard and climbed onto his knees. Later, Mom asked what he said to the old man. «Nothing. I just helped him cry!” We can learn a lot from our children. The ability to be near, openness, joy, compassion. We can learn a lot from ourselves — from the memory of our childhood. Whether it was happy or not is very important, but you can learn from it anyway. Christian psychologist Natalia Inina talks about this. And he notices that adults often do not so much communicate with each other as «solve problems.» Therefore, it is useful for us to remember that problems are solved not for the sake of solving them, but in order to make someone better.
