I figured it out. This thing called burnout or compassion fatigue is not that the love and core of giving is gone, as that is why most of us went into helping fields. It is simply that it is hidden underneath all the fatigue and fear and anger and dread and upset and defending and trying in the face of hopelessness and judgement. My upsets typically come from a wood pecker of stress pecking at me all day versus the intermittent kick in the balls. But then I find, and it surprises me, under all the shit, I am still there. We can quickly get at those parts still; she said, Come here. I did, and this 100 year old Italian said, I love you, thank you for helping me today.
