I’m not Nosey I’m Invested

1 min read

As a person I have a habit of being invested in people’s success. I don’t pray for people I root for them like they are my children. Which to some can be overwhelming when I ask a lot of questions. When you answer these questions, I’m hearing you and seeing all the steps it takes to reach the goal that you claim you want to reach. 

And guess what I’m invested in you reaching that goal too! I’m your cheerleader. I’ll send you a text asking about how it’s going. I’ll see something you mentioned you need and I’ll get it and give it to you. My hair dresser and my nail tech are close friends and I have the best appointment just talking about their wins and their challenges.

I’ve thought everyone knew that was my reason behind it…until recently.

I was speaking to someone and they said you already know the answer so why you being nosey. Only I didn’t know that was the answer which is why I asked for clarification. 

When they said that it planted a seed in me that maybe I need to be more clear and gave me an opportunity to reflect. (Only after I was offended. Because ya’ll I’m human.) So in the future if you catch me asking a lot of questions its because I want to help. 

How do you root for those you love?
