When their world was falling apart & everyone left, you were the one answering. When they were breaking down and had nobody else, you showed up without hesitation putting your own personal goals and feelings to the side for them. You listened, comforted, stayed present..
Your presence was valuable when they were struggling, but invisible once they healed. Funny how quickly people forget the ones who helped carry them through their own storms. It’s a tough lesson: loyalty isn’t always returned. Real isn’t always rewarded.
