- Yes, click on the chat link at the top of the page. Usually if you want to chat with someone you need to let them know that you wish to chat and ask them to meet you in the chat room at a certain day and time. Let me know if you have any other questions.

To One In Sorrow
Let me come in where you are weeping, friend,
And let me take your hand.
I, who have known a sorrow such as yours, can understand.
Let me come in--I would be very still beside you in your grief;
I would not bid you cease your weeping, friend,
Tears bring relief. Let me come in--and hold your hand,
For I have known a sorrow such as yours, And understand.
-Grace Noll Crowell

For I have known a sorrow such as yours, And understand.
