FOR SURE you already experience this thing. Being other people's crying shoulder when they are sad, broke, depressed, anxious, down and such. And when we feel the same, we can't find those people who will help us fight the struggle we are experiencing.
That's really sad, but because we love to help, even when they are not there to help us in time of need, we still help them. That is because of love.
Dave Willis once said, "It's not our job to fix people, It's our job to love them even while they are broken."
I agree with this qoute. It is not our job to fix them because they themselves will be the one who can fix them. They're the one who knows there true self. Also, God, He is our creator, He know us and He's the only one who could really help fixing our self. For me, He is the only one who knows us and the perfect one who knows how to fix us and He will fix us.
And since it is not our job to fix them, it is our job to love them while they are broken.
What you are doing to your friend as your mean of helping, encouraging and motivating, continue doing it because it's love.
Don't get tired of doing it even we don't receive the same.
And for you guys who loves helping, I want to encourage you that no matter what happen, don't lose hope. Fight the battles, keep moving, keep standing. If you feel so tired, have a rest, it's okay to rest, it's normal to rest because resting doesn't mean you lose the battle. It is because or it means that you are a fighter, you are strong!! See! YOU ARE STRONG! Say it straight to your heart! I AM A FIGHTER, I AM STRONG!
Sadness, problems, failures are just temporary, what is permanent is the heart that is brave, a lover, an encourager, a helper.
Continue loving, continue helping because even when we don't see what's happening after we show our love to others, someday we will understand it, we will reap it because it's the seed that we planted, It's the time we spend worth to other people.
Enjoyyy and have a great day!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
