also, don't forget you are one of those others.
In 4d we give so much of ourselves that we neglect the self. In 5d we refine this with wisdom.
So yes, it is about balance. Which is not to be confused with "What can I do to profit in a situation?" Rather it's "What can I do to help others without totally draining myself?"
