LISTEN TO THEIR WORDS
This might seem obvious but listen to their words. You might want to give them the world but what they need might not be the world at all. If they speak to you then pay attention to what they are saying and keep that in mind before you say or do anything.

DO WHAT YOU CAN, NOT WHAT YOU SHOULD
Showing up to the people you love can be quite daunting at first if you really think about it because there is a sense of vulnerability there, and both you & the other party have to be close on an emotional level in order to be there for one another. With that said, do what you can.
Don’t do something because you think that’s what you should be doing instead of doing what you are able to do. Not only will the other party know but they will also know that your actions or words weren’t organic which might be a lot more hurtful than anything.

SHOW UP TO YOURSELF AS WELL
I’m a firm believer that you can’t show up to others if you don’t show up to yourself in the first place. How can you pour love, attention & care towards another person if you don’t pour those emotions on yourself? You aren’t going to show up to another person while neglecting yourself.
Not only is it hypocritical but it can become dysfunctional quite quickly as well. Resentment, disappointment, sadness, anger, hatred and bitterness can build up easily if you don’t start paying attention to yourself and those emotions might be directed towards both yourself and the people you love.

Hey NL 🙂
I feel this post in particular is a testament to your approach (with your blog) — it seems particularly BALANCED to me.
The three things you describe are both important and necessary (and it is the way that they work together that is a big part of their success IMHO).
These are things I find very wonderful in the “Quaker” approach (to religion, social engagement, etc.). Personally I am very convinced that Quakerism is very close to perfect, but for me, I find my own “universal” bent sometimes seems difficult to constrain in what appears to be quite heavily orientated towards Judeo-Christian traditions (e.g. religious texts, etc.). I prefer a more skeptical, and even somewhat agnostic stance, and yet Quakers actually often seem very closely aligned with this, too (especially in “unprogrammed” meetings, which are the only ones I’m familiar with).
