I Dont Get It

I have always had a hard time understanding kindness. I've often felt confused or suspicious if someone was being nice to me. Genuine kindness. The kind where someone buys a homeless person something to eat instead of ignoring them. There have been times in the past when I gave a friend a place to stay or gave my last few dollars to someone else who I felt needed it more. If I am on the receiving end I cannot understand it. Why am I being treated nicely? Why are you helping me? I can't help but to think they want something from me or are trying to get close to me to hurt me by trying to gain my trust.

It's a sad but understandable to feel that way especially when you have been burned in the past by people.There are some truly genuine kind souls out there, but it is good to be cautious people aren't always what they seem. Some are wolves in sheep clothing as the saying goes, and some are angels in leather.
