Summarize the following:
Unlike infants and children, adults are capable of making independent assessments of their condition and whether assistance is needed. Before stepping in and attempting to help, always ask if you can offer assistance. If the person is in emotional pain, they may need space and time to process emotions before including another person in the coping process. Sometimes, just the offer of assistance is enough to help a person cope with distress. If the situation is not serious and the person welcomes a distraction, tell a joke or funny story. Comment on something funny/strange that you read online. If the person is a stranger or distant acquaintance, ask them non-intrusive questions about their likes and preferences. Is the pain physical? Emotional? Has the person had a shock or been victimized in some way? Ask questions but also be observant of the situation and surroundings for clues. If the person is crying and appears to have been injured or in need of medical assistance, call the emergency services immediately. Remain close by until help arrives. If the location is unsafe, move the person to a safer location nearby if possible. In the case of a friend or loved one, it may be helpful to offer a hug or hold hands. Even an arm around the shoulders can be a source of support and comfort. Different situations permit different degrees of physical contact, however; if you are unsure whether the person will take comfort from this kind of assistance, always ask. Without necessarily changing the subject, attempt to focus on positive aspects of what is causing emotional distress. In the case of the loss of a loved one, for example, mention good times that were shared with the person and things about them that were loved. If possible, reminisce over funny memories that may elicit a smile or possible laugh. Being able to laugh can exponentially reduce the urge to cry and improves overall mood. Crying is a natural response to intense emotional distress and, while there are occasions where it is in opportune or inappropriate, provided no one else is being hurt, letting someone cry could ultimately be safest, most supportive option.

summary: Ask if assistance is needed. Identify the cause of pain. Give appropriate physical contact. Focus on the positive. Let them cry.

Wash the pitcher in the sink with hot soapy water. Plastic Brita pitchers are not made to withstand excessively hot water, so never clean your Brita filter by putting it in the dishwasher. If you do, your pitcher is likely to melt and warp, making it useless. When you wash the pitcher, use a basic dishwashing soap that is non-abrasive. Any type of liquid dish soap with mild cleaning ingredients works fine. Use a soft cloth or sponge as opposed to steel wool or any other harsh scrubbers. Dawn, Palmolive, and Joy are examples of mild dish soaps which are good to use. After you have washed the pitcher, rinse it thoroughly. To let the pitcher dry, set it upside down in a drying rack or on a clean towel on your counter or table. Drying the pitcher with a towel may leave small fibers which will get into your water. If you are in a hurry, dry the pitcher with a paper towel to avoid leaving cloth fibers.

summary: Wash the pitcher by hand. Use a mild dish detergent and a soft cloth. Rinse the pitcher and dry it upside down.
