I often wonder what's going on in a person's heart and mind when they don't respond as I'd expect them to, or are indifferent or rude, or don't make eye contact, or . . . . .
In a chaplains' crisis response training I recently attended, stats were given that 80% of people you meet in a crisis ALREADY were in crisis BEFORE the event, therefore compounding the emotional impact of the tornado, accident, violence, earthquake, flood, tsunami, fire, etc..... 80% walking around us all time, or walking in our own shoes.
