And So It Goes

[wallycaine]

What can I say? Life's been both good and bad to me lately. I want to complain, but really, the only thing I have to complain about is that I always end up caring too much. Whether it's about other people's problems, or just caring for someone else too much, I invest myself too much... and usually end up, if not hurt because of it, at least drained. At the same time... caring about other people is a large part of who I am. I suppose it's a good thing that I can't just divest myself of that part of my personality, even if there's really nothing I can do to help. I guess it mostly comes down to wishing that I could accept the fact that I can't change something just a little bit easier. "The Courage to change the things I can, the Serenity to accept the things I can't, and the Wisdom to know the difference." I usually feel a bit short on all three.
