Be Good, Not a Doormat

Give Wisely, not endlessly

By Rohitha LankaPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

Being a good person…

You don't have to give everything to anyone.

Being a good person means knowing how to refuse.

Be good in the right place, be good to the right people.

Don't be too good to the point of being disadvantaged.

Don't sacrifice too much.

Just because you want to be a good person.

Give as much as you want to give, that's enough.

Because some people, no matter how much you give, it's not enough…that's all.
