"Just STOP "

Why is it so hard to do things for someone who is ALWAYS there for you, but we run to someone else's aid that is not supportive or true to you.  We take MANY things for GRANTED...it is time to STOP & smell not just the roses, but REALITY.  I have learned to STOP & fall back to take a  good look at what is important & weed out all the negative BS in my life.  I love helping people, but I realize I was helping the wrong type of person.  You have to ask yourself  do you know the difference in what a person needs or wants? Some just want because they feel like the way I think, "I want that" because I just do.  I get what I want, I always have. Reality is...do you need it, is it something you have to have or do you just want it your way? Do you know the meaning of need & want?  I ask myself, do I want someone that needs me or someone who wants me or both? Which one doesn't take you for granted, need or want? Is a need a necessity & Is a want a desire?

I STOPPED caring so much for what a person wants & concentrated more on what I need.  I have to still catch myself from jumping up to be there for others because when I looked up, only GOD was the last man standing right by my side (he never left) & I tell people constantly that no one owes you anything, except yourself.  What you do for someone, you do because YOU wanted to, not because you looking for anything in return~ but a Thank you is simple to say & telling  someone how much you mean or what you did for them how much it meant.  It can be something so minor as asking someone, "would you like a piece of gum".  That person mouth was probably so dry & you come and offer something to get there juices back flowing.

I love to hear a compliments that is meaningful.  I've been told by strangers I may have just met & from one single conversation they tell me they love my spirit, my warmth, & drive. I chose to STOP certain behaviors, but I will not STOP who I am on the account of someone else's needs. I continue to ask GOD for forgiveness, guidance & strength.  I try to return back the same kind of feeling someone meaningful has shown me.  People have different views & thoughts, but no one is to judge. But we do! Can we STOP? We try or want to, but we need to STOP & reflect on the most precious moments & live for now because sometimes it's too late to turn around.

It is many things I want; World Peace, a peaceful life, I want to try to help every child that is gone through suffrage, I want my family here with me forever, I don't want anyone to get old or die,  I do not want to argue or fight, I want everyone to be happy & live carefree, I want the killing & violence crimes to "JUST STOP".  I NEED to be realistic, we want life to be the way we want it, but it is so many things within ourselves that we as an individual need to re-evaluate and need to "JUST STOP".
