If we are not careful, we can spend our whole lives doing the things that others want us to do. If we are sensitive, we can soon tell what the folk around us need. And if we're kind, we will naturally want to help out where we can. Soon, though, if we carry on in this way, our independence will evaporate. People don't mean to keep on taking until we have nothing left to give but unless they are told to stop, they will accidentally keep on- -effectively oblige you to draw a line. That's a good thing.
There is something that means the world to you, someone you care for so deeply, some factor in your life that causes your heart to well up with enormous emotion. You try to hide the passion you feel and the strength of this powerful affinity. You don't like others to see how potentially vulnerable it makes you. You even kid yourself about the full extent of what you feel. Yet it is nothing to be ashamed of. Nor need it ever be a problem. It is time to celebrate your closest connection and don't be afraid.
