You Can't Save Everyone

#selfimprovement #selfdevelopment #mentalhealth
There is nothing wrong with being a wounded healer. There is nothing wrong with wanting to save others. This is a really beautiful thing.
But it starts to work against you when you want to save everyone, because the hard truth is that you cannot save anyone. No, not even that person. The only person you can save is yourself.
You can inspire others, you can help them. You can give them wisdom, knowledge and guidance. But they must walk themselves up the mountain. Nobody can do it for them. In life, we come alone, and we leave alone. What few people realize is that in between, we may walk alongside those we love, but our paths are ultimately just for us. They want to save because they see themselves in the broken. They want to save because it is uncomfortable to witness a suffering so much like their own.
Eventually you will realize that your life is of your own making, and you must give someone power over you to have power over you. You control your life, you control your outcomes. You control your space, your safety. For everything that is out of your control, your immediate circle — the space in which you live and exist — is within your jurisdiction.
