		<description>Recently, the Lord has increased my sensitivity for the broken hearts around me. This really helped me. Thank you. I am struggling to &quot;hone&quot; this gift because I am still young.</description>

		<description>I am asking all of my friends (and friends of friends) to help me support a child cancer foundation that I really believe in. 

It is a facebook contest at http://bit.ly/crkrEE and the name of the foundation is called The Seany Foundation (their site is at http://www.theseanyfoundation.org/). 

Seany died of Ewing&#039;s Sarcoma cancer a few years ago and he was a teenager. I knew Seany and promised his family I would help where I could. Chase Bank is having a charity contest ending in about 6 days and if you could VOTE (it is free to vote) with your facebook account AND post it to your facebook wall, I would really, really appreciate it. http://bit.ly/crkrEE</description>

		<description>It takes great courage to share personal feelings about a sibling who may appear &quot;less than perfect&quot;.  I commend you for recognizing the great value your brother has to offer.  He does not see the world, in our terms, but he has insight into your &quot;full heart&quot; because you opened the door and let him in.  Thankyou for sharing.
