Helping or at least trying...

Helping or at least trying...


One of the things that I pride about myself is that I can tell when someone needs help. Either physically or emotionally or spiritually. I usually do a good job of being a support to people.

This week though I seem not to have faired well in this department. A couple of friends have noted that I seem distant and self absorbed. Who me??

That is quite the come uppance for me. I take that as a real criticism. It hurts my pride and ego alot.

I don't know where I fell of the rails, but I am trying to pick it up again. Man that was a shock.

Helping people is definately a<b> mantra </font></b>with me. I always have tried to be sensitive to others needs etc. But I guess this last while I have developed a selfish side too. Wow, who knew??

So time to take stock and regroup. Today I tried to be a good friend to a couple of people and got smiles and thank yous, etc. Felt much better. I suppose in a way it also is self gratifying, but that's not why I do it. I truly believe that if more of us did, we could improve our world greatly. And I'm all about that!

So do me a favor... this weekend do an act of kindness to soemone. Unsolicited if possible and see how it makes you feel. I bet you won't regret it!!
