Sometimes I feel like a worm. I help in everything, the big picture but at the end of the day someone is going to step on me and destroy me. Leaving me behind. Betraying me, for what? Helping everyone? Perhaps this has occurred in your life by your choice or not. Somehow you seem oblivious to it, maybe ignoring but most likely oblivious to the fact that it happens and you don't realize. Let's start with a modern example. Say it's your friends birthday and you make a collage on Instagram or Twitter, whatever you use. You write a miniature essay for the caption and it's so unforgettable and such a kind gesture. Forwarding ahead, it's your birthday and you realize no one made you anything, they didn't even call. You didn't do it so your friends can do it to you but it would be nice. They don't even remember your day until you post a birthday selfie. Now that you might think is bad friendship, perhaps it is but when it happens it makes you feel like a worm dragged out by the rain. Vulnerable. You may seem like there is no reason to do good in the world if it's not comin' back to you. However just like karma for bad things, there is karma for the good. Someone you know or a complete stranger may complete this cycle. If we stopped this kindness it would basically mean ripping all the good from the world. So remember, do good and someone else will do good to you. Don't be the worm nor the rain, making someone vulnerable and taking advantage.
