My best friend and I started volunteering at the animal shelter together because we thought it would be fun and meaningful but we keep seeing things there that break our hearts and we don't know how to process it together. We used to laugh and be silly and now our friendship feels weighted down by all this suffering we're witnessing and we don't know how to be light with each other anymore.
More people experience this than they realize.
Bearing witness to animal suffering together has stolen your capacity for lightness with each other.
