Sometimes one feels so helpless, ya know? A beloved friend just lost his mom, another is losing an old, dear friend. . .my girlfriend just had surgery, and she's ok, but she's in pain. . . breakups, unemployment. . .bah. . .sometimes life just feels like a ball of yuck. I don't want people I care about to hurt. 
And sometimes there's just nothing to be DONE about it. That's all.  oh noes, prince is gonna soo me!!1! | |

Extremely hard, definitely  ...I'm extremely protective of those I love (a little too much at times), and if something is causing them pain I want to do whatever I can to take it away and make sure it never returns. I learned, though, that 99% of the time you can't do that for someone else  ..it's a frustrating thing for me to accept.
As well as, every experience may need to just "be"...each person's individual soul may need that experience, as much as it may hurt and as difficult as it may be. I try to believe that everything serves a purpose beyond the pain of the moment... I think a lot of people can relate and understand how you feel... | |

I know that everybody who has watched somebody lose a loved one has felt that helplessness, yeah.
It's frustrating for me to accept too. I get that there's no alternative. It just makes life look dark sometimes. oh noes, prince is gonna soo me!!1! | |

It just makes life look dark sometimes. ...I always pray for those who may be hurting, for them to find strength and peace of mind and peace of heart...since I believe in prayer, it comforts me...and I feel like I'm actually doing something to help that's beyond what I'm able to understand and know at the moment. | |

The only thing you can do is be there and listen. I believe that is one thing that really helps people that are having a hard time.

i know and can sympathize about the feeling tho Sometimes I'm afraid that I care about people too much and it makes me seem like a weirdo. i kinda get that feeling too sometimes it's because you're so passionate - and sometimes people feel it strongly from you... it gets rough because you only mean well [...i think i can, i think i can, i think i can...] | |
