Am I my brothers keeper

So lately I have had a lot on my mind. Mainly on the subject of why so many of us try and take a part in someone’s life. I am not someone who is innocent of this. I have had my fair share of butting in on others lives. But lately this has been on my mind. Why do we as friends feel like it is our place to be involved in lives that are not ours, for example. If you see someone who isn’t doing what you think is right why is It that we feel it is our place to tell them what we think. We often are so quick to judge others. I know I know we do not judge. I hear it all the time from friends. You know “ I don’t judge what your doing, its ok” Bs, you just judged right there. That right there is telling that you are judging. It was the first thing that came to your mind. That is why you said it. I can only say this because I have realized that I too judge. I am also guilty of this wrong doing. What really bugs me is when you are not doing things that are bad. You are in fact trying to better yourself and you still have those people who are quick to tell you that your still doing wrong things. Without any evidence of any wrong doing. So when it comes to things like this. I think that If you are going to have an opinion it is best that you talk to your so-called friend and ask him/her. When you assume things about some one you well……. You know the rest. I have seen a lot of things along these lines the past couple of months. Maybe its just me looking into other peoples lives. I try really hard not to get involved. I have a friend who is going through pretty much hell. And I cant help but to add my two cents on the situation. I wish I could do so much more for her. But I know that there is only so much I can do as a friend.

So im sure your thinking that there are sometimes in our friends lives that we do need to get involved. And that’s ok. But at the same time you cant help someone who doesn’t want the help. So what I have learned over the years is that you have to show them that what they are doing is hurting themselves. Make them see what it is that they are doing. In the end they will thank you for being there for them. Some times I wish that I had friends that did that for me when I was younger. But now there is nothing I can do about it. You never think about what your doing till its too late. And then when its all said and done you look at what you have done in the past and you try and be grateful for all the crap that you have done. And I can only speak for myself but I am glad that I have done what I have done. It has taught me so much about life. But now I look at my life and think wonder if I’d be different person if things turned out differently for me. I don’t know. I cant tell you that. I can only tell you what is going to happen now. And what I plan for my future. I have often thought about the idea of seeing the future. And you know what I don’t think that I would ever want to see what is planned for me. There is no fun in that. To me life is about the little moments that make your heart melt. The times in life where you do something just to say that you did it. And of course life is about doing that one thing for just a taste. A taste of something magical. I know that is how life is for me. I do it all for the taste. And you know what my fiends I am hungry for more.
