Nurture
The Writings provide some guidance as to how we might nurture our spirits during such times: Remember My days during thy days, and My distress and banishment in this remote prison. . . (Bahá’í Prayers: A Selection of Prayers Revealed by Bahá’u’lláh, the Báb and ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, p. 211)

Quote of the Day
Kamal 18 Mashiyyat 182 B.E.
Be sensitive for the possibility of prior exposure to severe violence, such as a personal or family history of trauma from torture, mutilation, war atrocities, gang rape, arson, bombings, lynchings, or other extreme forms of violence. Prior exposure to other forms of violence may exacerbate the effects of domestic violence.
