Every day you fill the well.

First thing in the morning. Sun shining or not, tired or not, you fill the well.

Throughout the day people help themselves. You are thirsty and see the well going dry, so you do the work to fill it but someone is always needing faster than you can give.

At the end of the day you are exhausted. You are so thirsty but your well is dry. People even stop by to complain that there's no water and if you tell them to fetch their own water they call you lazy, rude.

And you cannot sleep you are so thirsty. Yet you wake up and try again. Every day. Being drained and hated for not doing more, the whole time dying of thirst. Until you're dead and replaced by another idiot who will give without ever doing for themselves.

Everything in moderation...even giving should be done that way

@Psilocybeenbetter you are the only one who can do that for you ..
I don't know your life but I do know that you are the only one who can work on the things you need to work on ...you can't control what others do only what you do ....ive learned that I get to decide what I choose to tolerate in others ...people only treat you the way you keep allowing them to ....
