Will I ever be enough for a society without limits? Can I care enough, trust enough, believe enough, pray enough? All I know how to be is Lisa, is she enough?

I was at Wawa yesterday and had a brief encounter with a woman that appeared to struggle with mental illness. I did what I could to offer assistance in the moment but left feeling that my best wasn’t enough. Should I have engaged in conversation with her? Should I have purchased a gift card for her to use another day? Did my assistance in that moment provide relief or did I contribute towards a larger issue, one that couldn’t be outwardly detected?

(exhale) I woke up this morning with this unknown woman on my mind, wondering if I did enough – if being Lisa was enough.
