Its very important to love and care for people and to put others before yourself. We live in a fallen world and life will not always go as we planned but as long as we have God and we have that connection to him we can know that we can have a spiritual connection with God and with each other.
I always try to mentor and be there for my family, my friends and my students, being there doesn’t mean you will drop everything but you let others know you care and they can come to you when they are in need of help and encouragement.
