Why is so impossible for anyone - and I mean ANYONE - I know to respond to my ideas for my life with "hey, that sounds great, what can I do to help?"  And by help, I don't even mean physically or financially...just listening and encouraging and thinking through things with me would be WONDERFUL.  But no one seems to be capable.  Which I just can't make my self understand, as that would be the first thing I would say to someone in the same position.
