Go Help Someone Else If You Are Down

I help people not to help them.
I help people to help me.
When people are hurting, my advice is the same.
Always.
Perpetually.
Without fail.

Go help someone else, and your bad mood will dissipate.
Inspire someone, and you will be inspired.
Send love and prayers, and your essence will feel joy.

When you uplift another, you become your soul's favorite hero.
Yes. Your soul is keeping track, every minute of every day.
Every word you utter, every look, every gesture, every smile or sneer.

Your spirit wants you to be the best you can be.
She wants you to inspire and help others, with sincere empathy.
She wants you to be your best most heroic self.

Not for them, but for you.
And for her, your essence, your spirit, your soul.
It is her assignment, which is why you have missions in the first place.

I cannot believe the difficulty I have convincing people that this works and it always does!
