Emails
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: Feel Good, Inc by Gorillaz
Topic: Random Observations
There is such as thing as too many emails. In one account alone I receive emails from many wonderful organizations who thank me for my past support but then remind me that there are other people who have it tougher than I do (maybe) and wondered if I could give a little more to help them in their mission? I feel so overwhelmed sometimes-especially from the ones that I give my time to already. The phrase "give until it hurts" takes on a more sinister meaning. Knowing when to say "no" or to how to set boundaries is the only way to sort it all. You can't save everyone and if you put yourself in dire straits-financially and/or mentally-then you are no good to anyone.
