You do have a very particular essence that leaves a strong impression.

Let me ask you...if you knew that somebody close to you was suffering greatly, and you were the only one who could help, how far would you go to save them?

I suppose it would depend if I felt I could live with myself, if I didn't..

However, remember rushing to aid, is one of the ways to utilize the force improperly that can lead to the dark side.

Everything needs to be measured and sometime suffering is necessary for great growth.

Watching other people suffer only hurts if you have a capacity for empathy.

I saw a great meme about that very thing yesterday. I wonder if I saved it. It made me tear up.

It is a cute meme.

I am somewhat surprised by your answer though...do you not have the capacity for empathy?

I will venture that you did stick by me an awfully long time even though I accused you of being my handler constantly.
Don’t you think there must have been some kind of faith in me for you to do that?
You did not have to.

I was kinda leaning on the 'helping a caterpillar get out of its cocoon' analogy.

Sometime what seems like a case where one needs saving, is really only one's ego attempting to relieve their own discomfort watching someone suffer.

For an example..parents whose children end up getting cancer and have to watch them suffer for months, some time years. Sometimes they still die. Point is, I think most would tear their heart from their chest and give it willingly in the place of watching their child suffer like that..but there is nothing you can do. You just have to keep hoping and praying.

Of course I have faith in you.
