How is it that someone with few emotional attachments has gotten to the point of loving and being so involved in others' lives that their joys are also my joys and their pains are also my pains? I still wouldn't say that I am "emotional", but at the same time, I would say that God has definitely been softening my heart and opening my eyes to the people around me and their situations.
The thing that scares me about all of this is that none of these people are "mine". I'm not responsible for making sure they get fed or bathed or clothed and out the door for their day. If I'm getting this wrapped up in people I'm not responsible for, what in the world am I going to be like if I ever am blessed with a husband and children? What a blubbering idiot I'm bound to be. Yikes.
