Open letter to the world...I cant help you but you don't need my help.

ericwt

Look I am just a guy who hangs out in the Jungle. Do I know anything? No,I am just a guy.

I have seen many parts of the world and have met many people. I have shared their joy and their sorrow. I am a traveler in life and until now I did not know where I fit in the world.

I know there is pain and suffering out there. I know there is loneliness and despair as well as great injustices that I have no power to change.

I wish I could free the people who are entrapped. I wish I could encourage them when they get frustrated.

I only have power in my own little world. I know I am insignificant and I am okay with that.

The cool thing is the world and the people don't need my help. They can do it themselves if they want.

What I can say is there was a time when I was suffering in life, There were times I lost hope and wanted to give up.

Some how I found something inside me that carried me through. It was not easy and I did have to make sacrifices. It is hard to change and move in new directions.

No I can't really effect or rescue anyone. I have my own path.

But I can tell you if an odd guy like me can get his life together, so can you.

I know you can do it. ;) Never give up!

I was trying to open a jar of pickles but just couldn't do it.  I was about to give up until I read this inspirational post.  With a little luck and a lot of hard work, I think I'll get those pickles.

Or die trying.

Get your man to help you with opening those pickles. ;)

Hey you are a dancer, I bet you could open that jar with your toes!

Do they even have pickles in Hong Kong?

I hate being empathic. I will figure out the letting go, eventually.

This thread is really dedicated to the following situation..

If someone lives in a far away county that I will not ever visit(because the country scares the heck out of me),and is in a situation that is beyond my control..

Please do not PM me with your number and continue to ask me to call.

Now I am going to Hong Kong. Someone needs a jar of pickles opened...;)
