One who sought the presence of 'Abdu'l- Baha realized the father- like sympathy which is his. Speaking of his and others' love for 'Abdu'l- Baha the reply was: "I know that you love me, I can see that it is so. I will pray for you that you may be firm and serve in the Cause, becoming a true servant to Baha'u'llah. Though I go away I will always be present with you all." These words were spoken with the greatest loving sympathy and understanding of difficulties; during the moments of this little talk 'Abdu'l- Baha held and stroked the speaker's hands, and at the end took his head and with a gentle touch drew it to him kissing the forehead of the young man, who felt that he had found a father and a friend. +P113
