Of Counsels and Progress

I spent three hours being counseled today, and the only thing I got from it was the feeling that there is clearly not enough education required for high school counselors.
It's funny how the old friends and the passing acquaintances step forward in a crisis, not so much to help as to give the appearance of wanting to help.
I don't think it's over, but I really hope it is.
