Care

 Care

Can't be bothered?

Can't be bothered about someone? fine. Can't be bothered about someone who cares for you? are you stupid...

These day's it's so hard to find people who truly care for you. Honestly speaking, if you find someone who really will give their heart and soul to take care of you, cherish them, care for them too. It's really simple. We all know the phrase: Do unto others what you want others to do unto you. Treat people well. Doesn't mean you will be treated well. But still treat people well.

I heard this story in chapel today. For those from my school, it'll be a good refresher. For those who aren't, it's quite an interesting story :)

On a farm, there were 4 animals. A cow, a pig, a chicken and a rat. Who's the odd one out?

If you didn't notice. The rat is something the farmer will consider a pest. So one day, a mouse trap was bought. The rat made a big fuss over it: 

"There's a mouse trap on the farm!"

The chicken replied: "so?"

The pig replied: "doesn't bother me"

The cow was a little nicer: "I'm sorry to hear that, take care!" but didn't do anything else.

One night, a SNAP was heard throughout the farm. Had the rat been caught by the trap?

The farmer's wife went to see what had been caught...

but in the darkness, she didn't see the poisonous snake that was caught instead! and she got bitten :(

*HUH? haha where's the moral in that story?? ok keep reading, I'll tell you.*

The farmer decided to boil a herbal chicken soup for his wife to ease the pain...and the chicken was slaughtered for that. 

Next, the wife didn't get better, so family came to visit. To feed them, the farmer slaughtered the pig.

Now what happened to the cow? Well, more family came to visit and yeah...he got the chop too.

That's basically the end of the story, but what I was trying to bring out was the fact that we will never see how one small thing that affects people are going to eventually affect us. But if the person bothers to share their problems, we should at least give a listening ear and try our best to help. Never ignore. Can't help? Refer them to someone who can.

Another view of things: What if you have a problem, you share it, but the person can't be bothered?

Turn to someone who can be bothered. Not some random person. Someone you can trust as equally as the person you wanted to turn to in the first place. Be it family, relatives. But let's say its something you wanted to share with your boyfriend or girlfriend and they're too busy to help you. (yes, that does happen) For guys, turn to your bros, or bro. For girls, your sisters, or woman, or whatever. (sorry I've heard too many different endearment terms between girls) Depends. But you get the meaning. 

Turn to someone who can be serious about a matter, but knows how to calm things down too and show both sides of the picture. 

We all need someone to care for/about us. Nobody likes being lonely. If you want someone to care and keep caring, you have to be willing to return the care. You have to. 

CARE FOR SOMEONE TODAY! See someone with a problem? Don't turn a blind eye! Go help! 

Always listen more. Listening is the fundamentals to the best forms of support you can give.

Lift someone Higher Today! :)
