Thought Question #110


Honestly, I would have to say No.  But in a way, too, I want to say yes.  Because I do wonder if they appreciate it and if they will thank me.  That's all I want when I do something for someone else, because I wouldn't do it if I couldn't, but I do it because I want to.  I think I have a real need to be appreciated, that's probably why I try and give so much to my friends and expect only true friendship in return.  That's not too much to ask is it?

I don't think I do.
I mean, when I help someone, I don't think about myself or anything else. In that moment, they're all that matters.

But, I have to agree. Everyone needs validation. :)

(So, for all the times you've helped people who didn't notice, or did, but didn't particularly care... Thank you, Maryke. And thank you for everything you've done for me, too.)
