We all carry burdens, and it's not easy... the day-to-day challenges never seem to end, even after you're living in a good time of victory, it still seems like we're never satisfied with anything, and we always aim to achieve more and more.
Now imagine yourself carrying a burden that is not yours, maybe it's time to change that in my life, what I can do to help I help, what I can't help better let go.
If you're the kind of person who thinks about helping everyone even if it costs you dearly, maybe it's time for you to think about yourself a little more.
It's so much time being wasted...
I often want to help, but I see that that burden will cost me dearly... there are sleepless nights, stress because nothing is working, and the struggle to try to figure out how to do that.
All I should say is "no", but I end up saying "yes", and sometimes I need to stop doing my routine things to try to help each other. The mistake is to set my goals aside to reach someone else's goals in order to help.
We shouldn't accumulate guilt, burdens... Nothing to make up for what happened and didn't work out.
I can't agree less with you @anacristinasilva. The problems and struggles we face on a daily basis are enough burden to shoulder - adding anyone's problem to yours definitely won't life easy for us.
But at the same time, there are people you can't help but shoulder their problems - people like family.
At the same time some people can't say no when being beckoned on by others in times of trouble - but I would say, do the ones you can and leave out the ones you can't.
I agree with you... we cannot neglect the family, that burden belongs to us too.
Exactly my point!
This is a very touching one mate,most times we leave what is important to us and care so dearly about others,as good as this maybe or sounds at times,it is still very much important that will also look Into what is happening in our life too, cause many as indeed forget about what they need to do for themselves in the process of attending to others needs,it might sound selfish too,but of all our life too deserve a better attention just as we do give attention to other people life.
Thanks for sharing this good content
We must also understand our needs because we need to pay attention to ourselves at times.
Definitely, permit to say Many are actually suffering now in life not just because they are not at the right place or having the right sense of reasoning,but at a point in life they have neglect what matter most in their life just because they seems to be making impact in other's life.
Biblically it is love your neighbor as yourself not more than yourself,but some as done that without doing the needful too in thier own life.
One adage in my country says
Sincerely am well satisfied with this Content if yours
Definitely,this is a very good one from you and sincerely I agree with you on this,life is not just about pleasing people and putting that which concern our life aside oooo
Yes indeed .... We must not neglect ourselves..
This has really cost me dearly in the past and even now am still trying to learn how not to hold myself responsible for other people's problems.
Sometimes this really costs us, even more when we stop solving our problems to try to solve others.
I sincerely agreed with you on this too mate,we must not put that which is more paramount to our life aside in the name of attending to others life,cause most times we end up having no one to even look at our side or show concern about that which needs to do with our life too
Yes .. we need to pay attention to ourselves, otherwise we will be left behind and who will help us? We have to think about us too
A very good one coming from you mate and I want to say one thing I have learnt of recent is the ability to put myself first and just as @lordemmy said which I smiled about,but it is the fact,the bible verse ncer said we should love people more than ourselves,but as ourself,so I agree with everyone take so far on this
If we don't love ourselves, how could we love our neighbors? Yes, we must sometimes think of ourselves because we need to be well to be able to help our neighbors.
In as much as it is a good thing to show care and all love others by bearing their burdens, we shouldn't go above what we can carry. Our needs should always come first
Yes...because we have our burdens too, and taking from others may burden us too much.
Haha friend don't let the help of others to affect you, just try your best and leave the rest for God.
Don't please others and hot your self, this live is not by letting other people problems to affect yours
Yes true... we help as much as possible, we have our limitations and we have to be careful with the health of our mind.
In fact this post of yours was made for me.. It is good to help but when it comes to the point that u wouldn't have time for yourself that is very dangerous..
I'm not saying is not good to help but the truth is that if things fall apart no one will think about the good u have done infact don't be surprised that it will even be the same set of people u have help that will mock you..
However,if u are the person that care a lot about people always find a time to also care about yourself as well.. Because people are not after ur suffering but the success in particular
Yes... we have to know how to understand that we also need to take care of ourselves, everyone wants to have their own success, in the end if you stopped to help a lot, you understand that you were left behind ..
Always keep pushing forward
Ever..
We shouldn't carry what is beyond our capabilities. We must love our selves more as we will be left alone to bear the brunt if a burden weigh us down. It is okay to say no sometimes that's why we are all humans.
Exactly... sometimes saying no to another person doesn't mean that you're denying helping, it means that you can't help the person at that point in your life.
Caring the burdens of others often weigh us down and cause us to lose sight of our personal problems. It's good to care about ourselves sometimes but it shouldn't be at our detriment
Yes... we have to take care of our mental health
