Experiment Day 10: Helping Others (Karen)

I feel like sometimes it doesn't even take any work or any service on your part to help others, sometimes I feel like by just being there for someone or listening to them is all that they need.  I heard someone upset in the Atrium today and I thought that maybe they could use my help, but all she needed was me to listen to her and to just show her that I cared.  I listened to her for a good twenty minutes or so and then she said she was sorry for wasting my time.  I told her that I was there for her and that I would always listen to her if she needed me to and that I knew it would help her to just get something thoughts off of her chest.  She felt better and I did too and I knew that sometimes doing good deeds for others can just be as simple as letting them know that you will listen to them and be supportive.
