Good people don’t have wings on their backs or magic fairy powders in their pockets, do they often get worried because they want to get there on time, solve other people’s problems, have coffee with a friend and end their pain by giving them hope?
They never expect anything in return and see no obligation in their actions, sometimes they say that they are a little naive, that they give much of themselves and that one day they will be paid with disappointment.
- Good people know a lot about and face disappointments.
- Effort itself.
- And a willingness to do things the best they can be their best reward: it’s a way to be good to themselves.
Sometimes, for example, it may cost us every day to support a friend who is having a hard time, we offer him everything he needs, we give him support and comfort, and then discover that he has left this bad moment alone. and mercilessly.
In fact, the right people usually don’t research or expect this. They want nothing in return because their attitudes are always born of heart and authenticity; it is impossible for them to do the opposite.
But even if they don’t want to be thanked, at least they should expect recognition. Good hearts often also fade when they give more, when they give their last breath while naked in an empty environment.
Let’s think about it
Of course, you also know someone who usually reveals what he does for others. He explains all that he has renounced, enhances his values and virtues, giving a profile of great goodness with a slightly victimistic air.
Goodness knows no signs or sales. Kindness is discreet, shy and dressed in humility and simplicity, so good people know more about attitudes than words.
There are those who say that in reality the right people do not exist, there is nothing so bad. I’m sure you also know someone who knows how to look you in the eye and promise you that everything will be better than expected.
They are people who shine without realizing it and with which we always want to be, do not know the inconsistencies, their character is always the same, they do not speak with double meaning, nor selfishness, and also know how to understand the pain of the other.
If you currently have a person with these characteristics around you, in the form of a friend, partner or family member, keep their essence, keep it, take care of them and protect them in your hands like those fireflies that provide hope on the night of darkness.
Good people are souls full of courage and courage, they take care of theirs in good and bad, they give up many things for the good of others, and nothing, absolutely none of this, weighs them, makes them repent or frustrates them. .
Kindness that doesn’t know its limits can sometimes end up giving too much. The one offered in its entirety is sometimes undone. Therefore, good people also have the right to say “NO” without losing light.
No matter how willing they always seem, the efforts we see them make with their most beautiful smile, no matter how much, as if nothing weighed on their backs, as if no concern lived in their minds.
We all need our efforts recognized, because recognition places us in the world, personalizes us, integrates us into a context, into a family.
It’s not about thanking, it’s not about “returning the favor. “It is about recognizing the person for what he is, for his acts full of kindness, altruism, good intentions and above all love.
Love that does not recognize oneself weakens and becomes sick, which in turn, good people must also be able to reject, oppose and even break ties with those who harm them.
No one stops being a good person saying “no. ” It is a question of acting with integrity, for noble souls need their own dignity and respect to offer others the best of themselves.
