Because it’s tough out there especially in these trying times and you never know what support systems people have or what they are dealing with… and at the very least I don’t ever want to actively make anybody’s day worse (unless I must in order to protect my own peace)
Unless i absolutely hate someone, I can go to any lengths to help anyone out... Like, wdym you need MY help? You trust ME enough to seek my help? Look no further, I shall assist you as if my life depends on it. It matters not if I am simply being used, just knowing that my knowledge can be of service to anyone is enough. Do I ever receive help? No. I never help anyone as a transaction. I prefer to do everything on my own but I feel grateful if someone returns the favour.
My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
