That's how they are: they will do their best for other people so that they feel happy. They will do anything to heal someone's wounds and pain, while they hide their scars deep in their souls so that no one will find them.

They try to never remember the pain they went through and the scars left. What is certain is that these scars were left by the wounds caused even in those moments when they supported and helped others, they saved them… They did not wait to receive words of gratitude. But they did not expect indifference and indifference instead. Well - that's life

He does not think that good people are not weak or naive like children. They know only one language - the language of love and respect. And otherwise, I don't know how I can communicate and interact.

Perhaps, for this reason, it does not fit into our world, where everything is sold and bought, where everyone is for himself. A world in which feelings and words are traded, in which promises and vows are worthless.

Good people fight their own battles that others don't know about

Good people feel so much more than others see. They simply hide everything that is going on in their souls.

These people are fighting and fighting that only they know about. They are bitter and hurt, but they hide these feelings behind a smile. Because they don't want to look weak. Indeed, in our society, it is common to be motivated and cheerful. How else? After all, everything is fine and everyone is always "happy"!

Good people listen and do not condemn, speak and do not impose, look at everything, and are not surprised by anything. They are humble and carry their burden without resentment.

They expect the same behavior from other people, but as you can see, they are often treated with indifference.

They are worried about everything that is happening around them, they will not pass by those who need help. They are very sensitive to the pain of those who suffer from inequality, hunger, and disease.

This heightened sensitivity often leads them to actions that are incomprehensible to others. People consider them in a strange way and from another world.

There is no greater joy for them than to bring joy to someone, to see a smile on their face, to understand that it is helpful. This is the only way their souls can be filled with joy and contentment. I always smile because I look strong… However, everything is completely different.

Behind their bright and friendly faces are bloody wounds and painful scars. I understand and perceive with disappointment that their goodness was simply used. He doesn't think they're blind or naive. Good people do not take into account, but they understand perfectly how much kindness, sympathy, and love they offer to others, without expecting anything in return.

No, they do not condemn and they are not amazed. They are just hurt. As a result, more and more scars appear on the heart.

Good people can say, "Enough!"

The patience of good people is not unlimited. Although on the outside he seems to endure all the humiliation and resentment, one day you will hear these words from them and you will be surprised. The explanation is very simple. You have simply gone beyond the limits of self-esteem, basic values ​​of life, purity, and sincerity.

Don't get too close to the edge of the precipice. Their patience and kindness are not unlimited!

Good people are a chance for you to grow with them, to develop the best traits in you, to go through life together, feeling the warmth and support of your friend's hands. This is a journey of two equal people and not an opportunity to use someone for one reason only because it is too kind and sincere.

Don't be surprised when one day they tell you, "Enough!" They have already spent almost half of their lives for you and have given you even more than their soul allowed.

But their soul is not made of steel. Their heart is not a stone. They consist of feelings and emotions. And, unfortunately, their souls are covered in wounds. Because their kindness was confused with their naivete.

What to do if you were born good?

How to survive in this world? How not get burned? First of all, you have to understand one truth: you have to learn to understand which people deserve love and devotion and which ones don't. I know it won't be easy for your huge heart. But the hard truth of life is that for you, this is the only way to survive.

Understand that the word "no" does not mean that you have become evil and selfish. It just means you've learned to set priorities, leaving aside people who don't deserve your attention or effort.

Discover those who simply want to use you. Such people will try to manipulate you, calling you selfish and boring. Don't listen to them.
