If you’re like me, you’ve entered moments of reflection where you question how you can care so much and others so little.
Or that you shouldn’t care as much as you do.
Or someone else says that you care too much.
In every instance, there’s layers of comparison (which doesn’t do anyone any good) and narratives (that are completely up to us). Funny thing is, there’s no scale for caring. It’s not measurable; it’s subjective and defined by our own stories.
When we feel bad about caring too much (or if someone doesn’t care as much as we think they should) – that’s on us.
You know how it’s just a generally good way to live to give others the benefit of the doubt? The same can be said about you caring too much. Far better to care too much (by your own subjective evaluation) than care too little.
Hell, I’ve even found for myself that when I think I’m caring too much, there’s still more caring I can do.
