a dear friend just reassured me that "no good deed goes unpunished". unfortunately, i have felt this too strongly twice already this year.
twice this year i have gone out of my way to do something good for others, something that didn't wholly benefit me, only to find out that my good intentions led to someone feeling upset by my doing.
misunderstanding seems to be the biggest culprit in both instances.
so must i go out of my way to express every action to every person before i do it? must i chose not to do a good for one out of fear of upsetting another?
it's hard. frustrating. confusing.
