Getting Used

I always try and help people if I can, and have often helped exchange students or expats adjust to life in Michigan. I am so thankful for all of the people that helped me this year. I also discovered something else: some people only care about you when you can do something for them. When you need help and you ask them, they don't respond. Or they don't care enough to keep in touch, until they need something from you. I'm not going to stop helping people. It's who I am. But I guess I just have to realize that there are people out there that are going to try and use me. They're not worth it. They are not worth the effort.

So thanks to those of you that have helped me during this year abroad. I appreciate you more than you know.

  1. Trust me. I completely have been there recently. I'm sorry I haven't been there for you more while you were abroad. The past months have just been really tough on me, and I haven't really been there much for anybody. But I just wanted you to know that if ever you need someone to talk to, from now on I am here and I love you so much!
