Around me

Around me is pain,
Around me is sorrow,
Hope is gone, suffering constant,
I feel confined and without impact,
I want to get away,
Pretend none of this is happening around me.

As a social worker, everyday I meet new people who are in need of help and are going through the unspeakable. Its so sad when there is little you can do to assist everyone and help them live better lives. Due to the work that I am doing I have learnt how to appreciate those around me and build positive relationships with all those around me.

So often we let our environments affect the work that we are doing, our veiws on life and how we treat other people. As much as it is hard to learn to treat people as individuals we must learn to also get the best out of all those we interact with and black out the negative energy coming our way!

You would be surprised at how much of a difference this would make in your life!

Nicole,
you make it seem like you go through pain all day,all night,all year through.It is indeed a fact that all around us is pain and hurt but we have to realize that on top on pain there is also happiness.We can not always be happy and not always go through pain and hurt but a balance in these make us human,make us strong,make us realize that we there’s ot6ta be more to life and we want to be more and be all that we can be.
So Nicole,when you look around see both sides or you will most definately die of a broken heart!!!

nicole, i do agree with sandy look both sides after all confunsion of pain makes us stronger anyway i think u are a strong person if you manage to cope with all that every day

I love your work and may be thats why you are always sad coz of the people you meet but u have to be strong and take life the way it is .

We cannot meet the need of all the people we meet(that th painful bit).We can work on what our capability can allow.We need all this peole around us.they motivate and ecourage us.
Life can be sad gal.
We only hope that things gonna be all-right
