So why do I keep trying and failing so miserably at my own expense? Am I truly a masochist that looks for pain. Maybe Simon is right. Maybe I need to realise I can't solve everyones problems, I cant make everyone happy and feel good about themselves. I am not everyone's healer. And I should just give up and let everyone fight it out for themselves. Because I am sick and tired of being caught in the middle of everyone else pain and anger.
Yes, why do you keep trying??? 'Cos you are you and worry about your family/friends.
ReplyDeleteThe time will come when you are much older when nobody bothers you any more which is great in one way but is also quite a lonely place to be in. Take it from one who knows about that.
Perhaps be glad that people want to involve you but step back when the going gets too tough.
You are dealing with adults and as adults they should by now be able to sort out their own problems. Time they grew up a little. XXX
