Ever notice how one thing after another happens to some people? They believe, “Life’s a bitch.” I don’t like that saying; it’s a puny description of life. If you say it often enough, life pays you back and it becomes that way because the Universe is listening. If you allow it, your heart can break for these people. But you can’t let it; it won’t serve you well or them. Eventually you might find yourself right there with them. And how will that help anyone?
The people who claim “Life’s a bitch” are often the people who can’t quite utter the word “no.” And because of this, they’re physically exhausted doing for others, and emotionally wrapped up in other people’s problems. And as awful as it sounds, in time, they’re taken advantage of – they’ve let themselves become doormats.
How can they be helped? Sometimes listening is all you can do, as long as it doesn’t impinge on your energy. There’s a difference between people who can genuinely help others, and people who make other people’s problems their problems. Trusting that people can solve their own problems without interference, and learn from their own experiences, sets up the right energy for possibilities.
