A LETTER FROM SOMEONE WHO'S MAD.

I am mad. Yes.

I am mad at myself, I am mad at everyone who's ignorant. I am mad at every single living soul who's being ignorant and leaving at the worst condition of any community or maybe at the worst situation of someone, of anyone.

We shouldn't be ignorant, we shouldn't act like we have nothing to do to help, we shouldn't be selfish. We shouldn't stop helping each other, we shouldn't stop being light.

And I'm so mad that I haven't been so helpful to anyone who needs help, as long as I can remember. I'm so mad to see people being selfish and turn over their face from the people who needs help. To realise that I'd been turning over my face from those who need me, to see myself as a mean person, ignorant person. And I'm ashamed of it. I'm not proud.

Yes, it's tiring. It's exceedingly draining your energy to spend times helping people (MOREOVER helping those who always say they don't need your help), it's really tiring. But what will happen when you give up? what will happen when you stop helping them to get out of their darkest hour? It doesn't make them get any better. It doesn't make YOU a better person as well.  

Let me ask you a question, if you leave them at their worst, what makes you think you deserve their best? hm? What makes you think you deserve your wife at their best, when you leave her all alone at her hardest times?

BTW,
Being care doesn't mean that you have to leave your own lives to handle theirs, it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to stick with them 247, not a second missed. No.
Simply give your hand when they need a lift up, give your shoulder when they cry, give your food when they haven't eaten for days, pray for them, mention them in your prayer. There are so many things that you can do, so many things. Just don't act like they are not important, like they are nothing to you. 


I'm so mad at myself, but I'm gonna forgive myself and I'm gonna start to lean my ear to their cries, to pay attention to their words. Because I think, that's the least I can do to others to make them get better and to make me a better person. I'm gonna listen and pray for them. 

Anyone who needs help.



The person who tries to change,
Abigail June Papilaya
