I am not sure what this goal means to me yet. I sponsor a child, have owned a shelter dog, done volunteer work. That’s not what I mean right now.
For me, now, it is about repaying people who have been kind to me. Who have been more thoughtful and sensitive to me than most. I have this fear of being hurt that keeps me from reaching out sometimes. Or I reach out, get a little hurt and put up walls.
But in my life right now are some very kind people who remind what it means to be unselfish, who keep giving, and always cheer me up just by being around. I would like to find a way to tell them how much they affect me. I would like to be a person who can give so freely, and make others happy.
I think I used to be more like that, and somehow lost touch with that part of myself.
