Define "saving someone"...

I guess I would define it as finding someone less than perfect or less than ideal and trying to change them, fix them or make them be a different person.

I don't "save" people because I feel sorry for them. I don't "save" people because I want them to be different than who they are. I don't "save" people because I see them as a lesser person than myself. I don't consider it "saving".

I see the best in people. In each and every person of any race, gender, orientation, etc. Some may see that as a weakness, and sometimes it has proven to hurt me. But as a person, I will always see the best in people. And if you do, it's not a weakness. It's a strength.

It's a strength because when we can see the best in someone, we have the most potential to help them see the best in themselves. It helps them discover everything they can do by themselves. Even if they don't want to see it, they will start hearing your words and hopefully, eventually, start realizing it for themselves.

I don't "save" people because I don't like who they are as a person or because I want to change them. I "save" people for the sake of showing them that others see the best in them, and they are able to, too.

Stop shaming me for "saving" others. Its a strength because I have the ability and drive to help others realize the best they can be. Tell me again how that's a weakness.
