Delighting Others Shouldn’t Mean De-lighting Ourselves
Making another
happy should not exhaust us or take so much out of us that we’re de-energized. Putting the needs of someone ahead of caring
for ourselves isn’t a feasible idea.
Building up a
person is a worthy cause, but the cost can’t be so much that it overwhelms
us. Taking down the individual we are to
strengthen the other one is beyond the worthwhile expense.
Bringing contentment
to a person should not burn us out in accomplishing the feat. Choosing to elate someone shouldn’t consume
the energy we have, then depleting us of the needed power to sustain our
ongoing.
A gift of peace to
someone could be easier than we realize and it might not take much out of
us. We may also shine brightly while giving
some light to the other person.
