just another manic monday...


If you could "un-invent" one thing in the world so that it would no longer exist, what would you choose?
intolerance... wouldn't it be nice if everyone could be accepted for who they are? Might put an end to war and suffering...

Monday morning you usually waking up thinking:
what meetings do I have today? what's the weather? do I have something good for lunch? what time is it?

Do you find it easy to ask for help? Why or why not?
I do not. It's not easy to ask for help. Although, due to health issues, I've HAD to ask for help and I am much better at knowing and accepting my limitations. So, I know I can do it, but I still really hate to ask. And I don't know why... people ask me for help all the time, and I am happy to help. I can't think of anything I would ask someone to help me with that would be turned down. I'm not passive-aggressive (thinking if they loved me they would know I need help) or anything like that. I just am ... self-sufficient. From necessity. But ya know... therapy helps. Therapy made me realize that my friends like to help me because I give them so much help. It is helping me accept that I need to show my vulnerable side, to ask for help occasionally, because the people who love me in my life don't know I need help because I never ask for it. If I said that in any way that makes sense.

I've found that accepting my limitations is still very difficult, even with therapy. Oh well, I'm a work in progress!

Thanks for playing and have a terrific week.

I am glad that therapy is working for you. Yes, friends do truly love to help other friends. It makes you feel needed and who doesn't want to be needed??
