When there is a tough situation going on, don’t take the easy way out. I had been avoiding someone because I felt like there was nothing I could do or say to them. I felt if I did talk to this person they were just going to ask me something that I would have to say no to. Who wants to be put in an uncomfortable spot like that? So I thought it was easier just to ignore the situation, and that is what I had been doing since Sunday night. Until now…
Luckily, someone talked me out of it or better yet into it. Their advice was just to communicate. Not giving into what you can’t accept is okay but ignoring the situation is wrong. Instead reach out and let the person know you are there for them. Family is important, so when you know you can’t do much to help someone it is tough.
Little did I know that reaching out and listening makes a difference. Breaking that barrier is the first step. Everyone had been wondering what was going on and they did not know what to do. Not doing anything is not the answer, it never was. Now that I communicated, I have some better insight on what to do. I can share this with others involved and hopefully from this it will spread to them reaching out to one another.
Do not be afraid to say no. Do not be too proud to reach out to someone. Never stop showing your loved ones that you care about them no matter what happens. Even if you can’t help them, you can be there for them. Being there can be enough, it has to be…It is the only thing that can be done in some cases.
