Have you ever been in a position where you wanted to help someone out so bad that you were frustrated because everything you have tried doesnt work? Or the person doesnt seem to hear what youre saying?
Often times we feel that there is something more that we either should have done, could be doing or didnt do. We can find ourselves going around in circles in our thoughts and then punishing ourselves because we couldnt come up with an answer.
I have to tell you that in my experience, the very fact that you care, you can pretty much trust that you have done all that you could. If you arent able to effect a change, please consider that maybe you werent meant to in this case.
Or the person isnt allowing you to help them.
We all know someone that we have tried to help who cant seem to hear what we are saying. Or they cant see whats right in front of them. Some peopledont even want help.
Ive found that we find comfort in our suffering. Its safe and there are no surprises.
I think that we have all felt that at one time or another.
So what are the qualities of a good friend, wife, husband, leader or whatever role you are playing in...
