Martha

I visited him. Their helper offered us two cups of coffee and went away. He said: “I will tell you about this girl, who helps us, Martha, her name is Martha. One day, Martha felt some estrangement between me and my wife, that lasted for days. She was silent for days. Then she broke her silence. She came to me saying, "Excuse me, sir. I see that there is a coldness between you and Madame. This is hurting us all. It is locking us, adults, in a prison of hard grief, and hurting your little son”. Her frankness shocked me. However, I was not deterred. She waited two more days for me, then came back to me and said again: "Excuse me. I can no longer bear the burden of your strife. I find myself compelled to ask for your mother's help!" What do you think?"! I said to him: "If you will allow me to act on what I have heard, I will tell you my opinion". He understood that I am going to write to you about Martha. He agreed with me. There is no greater human being than he who serves peace!
