How do I get past this feeling?

I feel like no matter how good I am to others, it will never be fully and genuinely returned.

I can be straight and honest with a perfect stranger. Because it's the right thing to do.

I feel like people really don't care.

[b]Caring:[/b]
People may not care, but you [i]do[/i] and that makes you amazing :)

[b]Honesty:[/b]
Some are just not comfortable with hearing the raw truth (yet) and they cannot yet understand the compassion that your honesty originates from.
They will understand, perhaps later in their journey.
Try to be honest without robbing your words from kindness.
Too many are suffering, pointed fingers at, anyone can stumble; a hard truth can still be said with a sense of support - if you want to help, give them room to grow and improve.

[b]Giving:[/b]
When you give, you do not give to take.
You give to [b]give[/b] and that is the [u]sole purpose[/u].

If you give with expectation to take, you will be disappointed; not all can give to the same extent or intensity as you.

When you give just because you felt like it, without expecting anything in return, you will feel content and fulfilled.

Still, if you are tired to give, you can take rest and when ready, give again.
In that way, you inspire others to become like you - leading by example.

You are enriching yourself by giving your best.

Remember, as you give to others, you are also [i]gifting yourself [/i]something intangible but[b] priceless [/b]in your soul, which makes you [b]stronger[/b] every time.

Let live:[/b]
No matter how giving you are, if some do not wish your help, they cannot be helped.
It is only those who choose to be helped that you can really have a positive impact on.

[b]Hope & Courage[/b]:
Have hope, there are many[b] ripples of greatness[/b] in this world, just like you.
Despite distance and time, we can still act in[b] unison[/b] by choosing our every action [b]wisely[/b].

When you get busy looking for things to say "[b]Thank you[/b]" for, you begin to forget about the things that bring you down... give it a try ;)
