Hi Buddha, what should I reply if someone said "save your urge to help others, and respect their own life" ?

Hello! I understand how challenging it can be to navigate situations where you want to help someone, but they may not want or appreciate your help. It can be especially difficult if you feel like you have the knowledge or resources to make a positive impact on someone's life. It's important to remember that everyone has their own journey and their own pace of growth. We cannot force someone to change or accept our help if they are not ready or willing. From a Buddhist perspective, it's important to practice compassion and respect for others' autonomy. We can offer support and guidance, but ultimately it is up to each individual to make their own choices and take responsibility for their own lives. This does not mean that we should give up on trying to help others, but rather approach it with a mindset of non-attachment to the outcome. We can plant seeds of kindness and compassion, but it is not our responsibility to make them grow. From a psychological perspective, it's important to recognize that our urge to help others may stem from our own desires or needs, rather than the needs of the other person. It can be helpful to reflect on our own motivations for wanting to help and ensure that we are not projecting our own issues onto the other person. It's also important to respect others' boundaries and choices, even if we disagree with them or think they may be harmful. We can offer support and resources, but ultimately it is up to the other person to decide what is best for them. In terms of coaching advice, I would suggest approaching the situation with curiosity and compassion. Ask the person if there is anything you can do to support them, but respect their boundaries if they decline. Focus on building a relationship of trust and respect, rather than trying to change or fix them. Remember that change takes time and may not happen on our timeline. Keep offering support and kindness, but also practice self-care and respect your own boundaries.
