There comes a time when you realize theres only so much you can do to help somebody before they have to start helping themselves.
Theres only so much you can do for a person before you need to let go, and though you wish you could do more it simply can not be done.
Anything else is out of your power, and out of your hands and into theirs.
I dont think it would be so hard to give people the power to help themselves if they were ready for it. The hard part is letting go after you've done all you can, but still feel like you havnt helped at all.
You cant make a person ready to help themselves.
And sometimes, people are never ready, some people are beyond help, theyre just too far gone.
Is it possible for people to change when they've been a certain way their whole lives?
Maybe, but even though it's in their best intrest to change, do they realy want to?
