I Am a Good Listener

I often think of this as both a gift and a curse... but today maybe I can look at it a bit more positively.

I should feel grateful that people are willing to share a piece of them that they don't trust with anyone else.

I think what I struggle with is that I feel helpless sometimes. A friend once told me that I internalise other people's issues, and I think I do.

When someone I care about is hurting, I hurt as well, and I want to do everything possible to make you feel better.

I wish I could I help you... but I know this will be a rough road for you. All I can do is lend is an ear, and a shoulder to cry on... and I'll cry along with you.

Perhaps this is for someone, seems like it. But, understanding is probably quite precious to whomever you want to help. I always found it far more comforting then love.
