So, for my friend that doesn't believe in God

[Clang McFly]

Do I say something like, "Look inside yourself for the answer"
"Dig deep inside to find comfort"

Those are usually the things they post on FB. And they are going through a rough time and it is tough to know what to say sometimes.

I mean, usually all that is needed is to listen, which is what I do. But occasionaly it is nice to have something to say.

I usually just listen also. But sometimes I'll say something like "I may not understand what you are going through, but please let me know if they're anything I can do to help you."
