Tonight I bumped into someone I know through the church, while she was at work in Tesco. She talked to me as if I were a normal human being, as if I weren't guilty of abandoning children to hungry wolves, and as if she was just trying to cope with some of the additional hassles changes at the church have brought with good grace. I've not talked to her since Christmas, but she was just happy to chat for a few minutes, looking me in the eyes and being open and honest about stuff.
She'll probably never know how much being treated like that was encouraging and affirming.
