It's difficult being a good person, especially when people don't care to see that you are. A perfect example happened yesterday. I voiced my worry and concern over someone's well-being, and in response I got, "Well, I don't expect you to help me with my problems, they're not yours."
What?! Wow.... That's just mind-boggling. Maybe I'm just different, but when someone tries to show me they care about me, I am very appreciative. Life is hard enough in this world. When someone offers me a helping hand, I don't slap it away. I'm not so proud, arrogant, and ungrateful to do that. If I had to refuse, I would at least say something like, "Wow, thanks for your concern over me. I really appreciate it, but I don't need help just yet. I hope that your offer will remain open in case I do later?"
But OK, no issues here. If the person doesn't want me to give a damn, I won't. Time to move on? We'll see.
