the only person you can save is yourself

thetaoofdana:

you can’t save your friends, your family, your partner or strangers.  maybe you can save them from a disaster… but not from their own habits and their own patterns.  you can encourage, but you can’t save.  you can help, but you can’t do it for them.  when you think you can save everyone…. no one gets saved.  spare yourself and save yourself.  everyone else can take care of their journey.
