That kind of person

# Chapter 290

Already made a pharmacy run this morning for a sick kid. Pharm shelves were bare for the stuff I was looking for, guess there are lots of other sick kids this morning too. Finally found some at the next pharmacy and the daughter is happy and hopefully the baby will feel better soon. And all this before most stores have even opened up their doors this morning. It is going to be an exciting day.

You want to be this kind of person in the world, where people will not hesitate to ask you to help, where people know they can depend on you, where you are the first person they think of in an emergency. First responders of the everyday variety and type. This is what we all want to be known for all our lives. But most of us find it too difficult to stay in giving mode. We can do it occasionally but to be that person who gives and helps every day all the time is too much for most of us.

We are far far too wrapped up in our small selves and our small worlds and all our thoughts revolve around us and pretty much that is all. Period. End of story, end of your life. I know way too many who are just like this. I can be like this. Stop. Today.
