@sduttaskitchen, your post resonates deeply! It's powerful how you've articulated the frustration of being the constant giver and the disappointment with those who take without acknowledging the human element. Your words about people seeing help as an entitlement and the importance of valuing time over money are incredibly insightful.

The images you've included add a beautiful visual dimension to your thoughts. It's a raw and honest reflection, and I'm sure many in the Steemit community can relate to this feeling of being taken for granted. Thank you for sharing such a personal and thought-provoking piece. Let's hope it sparks some much-needed reflection! What are some small ways you practice setting boundaries in your own life?
