Even when we have the truest intention of helping and uplifting someone, when we do it without permission we are hurting not helping. Learning to watch and evaluate the others responses to our conversation is key to being supportive. Learning to let go of all the Seminars and training of my past and Only be present for the person before me is much more supportive then spewing all of the positive mental BS at them and hoping it will help. I met a fantastic person the called me on this very thing this week and I found it refreshing and enlightening. Help only when asked to do so. Otherwise, leave all the quotes and encouraging works in the backpack, until they want some. I appreciate all the people I am meeting.
