Today I realized how few of us actually go out of our way t help one another. In no way do I mean for this to be a "wow everyone is a butt" post. It just irks me (rather deeply) how we can easily pass on a chance to help. I think we forget to walk a mile in other's shoes, you know? To empathize with someone is to truly extend the handshake of goodwill. A simple gesture of sympathy can make waves larger than one could ever expect.
So, perchance someone is struggling. Will you be the one to find their misfortune amusing? Will you be the hand that reaches out and offer support, or will you simply do nothing? Will you walk past the one that need your help so dearly? Why do we constantly pass the buck and assume somebody else will do what needs to be done?
That is a question that only you can answer. Actually, you are the only one that can answer all of these questions. So, will you step out of your own personal bubble and extend the arm of good will, or will you let someone wilt at your own expense?
