tends to complain
even over minor matters
those minsignificant stuffs
I have tried to meet his needs
but fail in the end
I am almost at my wit's end
Usually emotionally drained
Taking care of such person
poses a constant challenge
I don't know what he wants
I almost give up caring for him
Once I ordered some spaghetti
thinking it was his favourite
after a hopeful bite he spat it out
"It's saltish! I don't want
Last Sunday I tried to negotiate a ramp
but was thwarted by his reluctance
to stand up and made two short steps
At last I had to travel a big round
Thinking that he was tired
watching telly the whole day
"Do you wish to retire?"
"Why so early?" shot the reply
I remember Jesus' words: strangers you welcome
those who are hungry you feed
Naked you clothe
Thirsty you will give them drink
When you did it to one of these brothers
or sisters you did it to Jesus
Yes, that's my motivation
and eternal rewards

It would be difficult to care for someone who is so difficult, but I am glad that you keep trying.
The effort was given so it may have been the other person's refusal to accept. Many times we all may refuse help given to us. We have to be careful when given or offered help.
The teaching part of this came through clearly.
I am glad you are a perserverer!
