I'll answer it anyway.

That person I told you about back home who is very... Ruby-esque does most fo the fixing, too. Thing is, you need to help mend the stuff you can't see so easily. It's not just one thing you do, you just need to add good to the world bit by bit. Sometimes you'll mess it up, but it's important tog et up again and keep at it. Even if you feel like you don't deserve it any more because it stops being about you when other people are the victims. You kind of need to put them before yourself for a while.

So you build their faith in you, a little bit at a time. Doesn't have to be a grand gesture. Help them move some boxes. Do something to make their day a little easier. Be there to answer the call if they need you. I'm still working on mine, but I was getting there, back home.
