I just had a day that recognizes this.
/rant In my current spiritual beliefs, if we are the "body" I consider myself a "shoulder of god". Our "souls" are all a piece of a greater being. We are sent out to experience the world, record those experiences and return with memories that enrich the collective. While some are here in this world to physically help the world and some to educate the world shoulderman exist to endure it. Shoulderman are sponges for the world's pain. We juggle it until a "hand" hopefully comes along to clean it up. While any modern day "hero" might be the hand of god, a great archetype of a shoulderman is Jesus, who "shouldered" all the sins and suffering around him and then died quite horribly. As not every life has a happily ever after our virtue is compassion in the now but not necessarily resolution.
Weird religious conclusion like these are the only way I can explain how I'm drawn into other peoples crappy situations. Tomorrow I'll add 3 stories from just one day in my life. Child surgery, Stroke, and Costco guy.
