Thanks again everyone who responded. I find myself trying to be more sensitive to those around me, despite anything I have or am going through. Like the article says, our own pain does not diminish someone else's. I've been on the receiving end of stuff too, and have felt unheard, invalidated and like I didn't matter. I think the trick is, there is a season for things in life. A season to give and a season where we need a little more given to us, and when our cup is filled we can give again.
