care but be so ever gently

while caring for others keeps us alive. it's what makes the world turn, and i believe that how we care for others allows us to live another day.

caring too deeply isn't wrong.

caring less isn't wrong.

the root cause of why we wish we didn't care at all is because the affection isn't returned. giving support and attention to people is a marvelous endeavor but given in extreme measures without boundaries is a self-defeating act.

it's not because you are loving. it's because that maybe giving a magnitude of attention to someone else, you may receive the same in return. care with gentleness to yourself so that you aren't hurt when you don't receive the same affection—we can never force or expect people to react the way we want them to be.

Free to choose

Where someone does something and it continues to be repeated without an apology and you may apportion blame, it usually means it’s warranted.

Generally speaking, you wouldn’t look to blame if those you were blaming weren’t responsible for the decisions that were made. Where you may apportion blame and it is warranted, it doesn’t help.

In my own case, at the age of 46, I was finally free to choose how I moved forward with my disability. Where decisions are being made for us, as adults it is up to the individual to choose how their story will end.

Growing up, I was aware of my environment and my physical problems, but I wasn’t aware of what my mental or my emotional problems were, all I knew was that I wasn’t able to learn and I was failing.

I learned that as children we’re not always able to be instrumental in our lives, but as the adult, generally we are free to choose. If we don’t like what’s happening, we can change and make different choices.

Whenever we pick who’s right or good, what we’re actually choosing is whose story we stand by.
