For STEVE (from New Jersey)
Life is very often fair - but seems to be unequally distributed. The burdens that come fall on who is left - and are not of our choosing. What can we then do? 
It is necessary to survive, and get over such things even when they touch us deeply and leave many issues unresolved... How to divide up responsibility for a life not ours to start with? Can we find fault when we don't know every detail? Can we believe instead in a state of grace at the end, when many questions are left open?
I can only live as I DO. I think it is the best that can be asked of anyone. In the modern view - we may consider many peoples ways of living as 'unsound'. But we may never know what led another of us to see things in the way that they do. It is not only possible - it is very likely that many people that we regard as irrational may have arrived at their personal view point by circumstances beyond their control. Things that we never knew, and can thus never understand.
Frustration, hate, fear, anguish - any such issues can become bottomless pits that spiral forever downward.....
If there is no apparent way out, what happens?
Down we go....
And we cannot consider it a weakness of character. There is no way we can see all of the details locked up in someone elses head. We are neither clairvoiant nor espers. No one can read anothers mind fully....
Make what peace you can, but do not be dissappointed if nothing comes of it. It is rare that reconciliation can be made with people on that downward road.

We cannot always be the infallible "LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL"
There are no silver bullets.....
May the Lords will (however you concieve of it) bring healing.
