Today I finally understood my good friend and how he is able to heal himself by helping others with their problems rather than opening up about his own. It happened when I was leaving the school and a random girl that I'm not really friends with came up to me and spilled her heart out to me. I felt a sense of relief because I was not alone with my issues. I also felt a desire to help her out because she did not deserve to feel this way and while I might have in the past...I had strong support to get me through it. Such a cycle. People with problems being helped by people who used to have those same problems and then helping others in the future who get those problems. Maybe I can take part in it. Maybe now its my turn to make her into a future helper.
So now I get him and I laugh at how I was annoyed before. Maybe me and him are more alike than I had first suspected.
