The second
important thing Ellen with learn from her tragic experience, is a strong sensitivity
to emotional pain in other people. Unfortunately,
you can’t understand and know this, without going through the intense pain
yourself. It is a pain so ravaging that
you would not wish it upon your worst enemy.
It hurts so bad and so deep, that it is at times unbearable.
On the other
side, you show more empathy to people in pain.
You also are much more hesitant to be the cause of pain in someone
else. Because of the tribulation you
have encountered, you become less selfish, you become more caring, you are
transformed into a much better person than you were before.
You also are
better able to comfort others in distress.
You have experienced the worst and survived. You have been to Hell, and returned. Your sensitivity enables you to know what do,
know what to say and know “how to be there” when someone needs you to be there.
Some people
would say that is the reason why you went through the tragedy, but I would
still say there is no reason for something this horrible to be bestowed upon
anyone. There cannot be a purpose behind
this. It is more the result of what
happened. A result we do have control over after the utter helplessness of the awful
event. You see, we must all travel on
The Road even after tragedy strikes without warning, but it is how we walk that
makes the difference.
