You got it, Bruce. Over the years, people have come up to my wife, out of the clear blue. She'd never seen them before, but they told her that God had put her in their path. One had a son who had just committed suicide, one had just been diagnosed with cancer. My wife was working behind the counter of a department store, so she couldn't do much more than listen. Years later, total strangers would walk up to her and say that they'd come to her long ago and the things she had said to them changed her life. Not only didn't she recognize them, she couldn't remember saying anything particularly wise. Of course, it wasn't what she said. It was the listened and obviously cared about them. That can mean more than the greatest wisdom of the philosophers.

Caring.
