How broad are your shoulders? How much of someone else's emotional baggage can you take responsibility for? We all want to be sympathetic to others, to forgive them their shortcomings. Or at least, we all say we want to. Some of us are far too quick to judge and some (I think you know what I mean here) are too slow. We put up with more than we should. There is now something or someone that you need to put down. Develop a fresh perspective. Then, if you really still want to, you can pick it all back up again
