Who cares?

Today I was woken from my sleep by a phone call. It was not just a phone call but someone who called from the states to tell me they miss me. They told me I am an inspiration to them and that I am the one person they think about when they dont know what to do. After that call I sat in my room thinking. Not just thinking but seriously thinking. I never realized how impactful saying hi, asking someone how they are doing, actually listening to someone, and genuinely caring about someone can be. Made me wonder who cares?

Who cares enough to think of someone once a day, who cares enough to lend a couch if you necd a place to stay, who cares enough to feed you a meal each day, and who cares enough to want you to stay?

It made me think do I care enough? Would I help someone in need even if it ment not enough of something for me? Would I lend a hand or gentle ear? Would I wipe away a tear? Would I be willing to stand in a crowd alone?

YES! I would be willing to do all those things, not just once or twice but as many as it takes. I would be willing to stand alone, have people throwing stones, I would be willing to hold your hand, listen and try to understand, I would be willing to take your fears, and make all your worries disappear.

I know that there is many people that would be willing and that do care. They are our friends, family, neighbors, community, and world. They are the ones who know you better then your self, they are the ones who would give you the shoes on thier feet, would wipe your tears, eliminate all your fears. BUT it is up to us to listen, talk, love and care back. It is up to us to want to change, better our lives, so the question remains DO YOU CARE?

Just food for thought as you go throughout your day. Think of every person you talk to and think do they care? do I care? the answer may surprise you.

Just remember someone cares, I CARE!

Who cares enough! can you finish the sentence? If you have a who cares enough statement(s) email me them at [email protected].
