Do Me a Favor

Hey, Sugar Cube:
     You are the strongest person I know (emotionally). You've dealt with more than I can imagine dealing with and yet almost every time I see you, you are smiling. Are just you being brave? I know that if I ask to help you, you'll refuse and tell me you're "fine". You don't want me to worry about you. I really don't know what I can actually do to help, anyway, but, I do want to know if you are not "fine". I can listen.
     Recently, almost everyday when I ride the train home from work I think of you when the train stops in Lombard. (You wouldn't even recognize new platform) I imagine a conversation we would have, or a guided meditation we would do together. Somehow if  I were able to help shoulder that load for you, if even for a moment, so that when it is again all on your shoulders it is a little lighter.
    Would you do that for me ?- would you sincerely imagine that I could help you? if for no other reason to ease my mind. I know it is incredibly selfish of me.
