“Three things are necessary for the salvation of man: to know what he ought to believe; to know what he ought to desire; and to know what he ought to do.” -Thomas Aquinas
Your new life is going to cost you your old one. It’s going to cost you your comfort zone. It’s going to cost you relationships & friends. It’s going to cost you being liked & understood. But the people who are meant for you are going to meet you on the other side. ~B. Weist
Before saying that “helping others is ALWAYS right,” reflect on why you feel so. Are you avoiding your own pain or relying on your worth as a caretaker?
Sometimes, the most compassionate choice is to let others struggle. It's not easy when you love them, but it's necessary.
