Kita’s Gentle Message: Taking on Another Life

“Caring for another at this time? Most of you will say, “Yes.” Whether a sick parent, a lonely sister, a challenged uncle, a depressed teenager, an angry co-worker, a heartsick friend, you’ve stepped up to support them at a vulnerable time in their life. How long you will help them out remains to be seen. For the most part, it’s not your choice but the unfolding of circumstances that encircle you both. Some will say, “You’re doing too much.” Others will say, “You’re not doing enough.” You may say, “Can I keep going like this?” And your heart will say if you let it, “Do what you can but remember to take care of yourself, too.” Your journey of life is primarily a single path intersected by many other ones. Let the crossings take place without having them swallow up your own unique road.”

To your Happiness,
