One Sleepless Night

 I was thinking about this during one long night when I couldn't sleep. When  I was going to university, many years ago, during the summer, I worked in an auxilary hospital in Medicine Hat.  One of the patients was a youngish man, probably in his 30s, who due to some kind of accident, was totally paralyzed, though he could still speak. I remember that he was depressed most of the time. At the time, though, I was maybe 20 and at the age that , if it doesn't directly concern yourself, you don't give anything much thought and I truly didn't understand why he was depressed so often. But, now that I am in similar circumstances, I understand all too well. I admit that one of the major struggles for me is with depression but, because I am a Christian, I can usually shrug it off within a day or two. My point is this. None of us really can understand what another person is going through until we go through a similar situation. I suspect that Is why Jesus so big on us not judging each other.
