A Good Thing in the Descent

I am writing this at 00:14am.
I discovered tonight that one of my friends was having a hard time, and I have put my own issues aside to help her, and I believe I may have. I feel good, but the negative part of me is wondering how long it will last, but the slightly positive side of me is glowing because I have managed to come out of the torment manually by helping her be happy, and in turn it has made me slightly happier. Unfortunately I have gotten that horrible nervous feeling again, but it's a joy to see I have helped someone feel happier and not get into a state like myself.
I only realized I had done good when she told me after me explaining something to her that, "I never thought like that really..." and that was when I thought wow, I have just given someone a positive look on their situation rather than keeping them negative.
I have to say, this is the first happy post I have put on here, but it is one I will always name my favourite because tonight, I have done good and that in turn has made me just that little bit happier, and they wont even know they've helped me.
I suppose in a way, that's a good thing. With what they are going through, I would hardly want them to be troubled and concerned about me. They have a lot going on the same as me, only one thing makes it worse but it hasn't driven them to my level where they wish to die; I have made her happier in herself and made her think in a brighter way.
I am just that little bit happier.
