Better You

In life you won't always be part of the in-group. You won't get to be the center of attention for every party. Why? Sometimes we see things clearer standing on the sideline. You need to feel like an outcast to know how much it hurts. Everyday I try to respond to everybody's request and more often than not, I'll say yes. I have my moments where I feel used, unappreciated, like a tool. Like a security blanket people run to when they need help. I see them when they're vulnerable and sad and this is what I like as well. To see the real person without their masks.

I do have a tip on how to get by.. "Do unto those you wish done unto you". Every time you feel "this is useless, why should I be nice? I'm always the second choice, etc", remember the person you are helping will benefit from this and hopefully pass on the goodness to other people and somehow make the world a safer place to live in. Wow, I sound like some activist. I just want to survive this crippled feeling I constantly feel.
