not up to me

when people come in to my life and make me
feel like I am supposed to help or save them
I get anxious and negative because I don't want
to fix their problem

I have had this happen twice in the past
and one of these people has popped backed recently and is in a serious relationship
problem right now, I feel bad.  However it is not up to me to fix it


This person has a behaviour issue repeating itself
but it is still not up to me to look after it.
This person is in their early 30's.
I put myself into an unhealthy unbalanced state when this happens.
I am learning to say no and to explain my stand on their problem.

I am very grateful for strong true friendships that I can go to
when I find myself getting wrapped up in this.

I must stand for something, or fall for anything.!
