'It's odd how things happen in your life to truly put things into perspective.  I have been dealing with the weight of what has been happening with ENDA and made a call to a friend that I haven't heard from in a while.  She answered and we made some small-talk but I could tell from the sound of her voice that there was something wrong.  I asked if she was really doing ok, and she thought for a second, and proceeded to tell me that no, everything's not ok.  She's a single parent of a 14-year old daughter and she explained that she had spent the entire previous night at the hospital in the Emergency Room because her daughter had overdosed on Ritalin'.
