“For those of you who earnestly seek to bear another’s burdens, it is important that you refortify yourself and build yourself back up when others expect so much of you and indeed take so much out of you.” (Jeffrey R. Holland, “Bearing One Another’s Burdens,” Ensign, June 2018, 27)
Respecting our own and others’ boundaries can foster safety, trust, and overall well-being.
Even the Savior set personal boundaries when He “went a little way off” from the multitude to take time for Himself to pray (see 3 Nephi 19:19, 27, 31). We can follow His example as we seek to set healthy boundaries in our lives.
