I am able to ask for help.
As we each navigate our way through life, struggles, challenges, and burdens will cross our paths.
We may be making our way down a clear, smooth path, free from obstacles or barriers. The sun is shining overhead, and birds are singing.
Then we discover that the road ahead has been well and truly blocked by an unexpected challenge.
There is a choice to be made.
I understand that when I am blocked by this unexpected challenge, I can respond in one of two ways:
I can choose to shoulder the weight alone, taking full responsibility and finding my own solution. This is an answer that may help me clear the blockage, but the journey will be long.
I also see that I can reach out to those around me and they will lift me up.
I see us working together to lift the burden in front of me, and I watch it roll away, effortlessly, quickly, and without ease.
I understand that this is a choice, and I choose to ask for help.
I am surrounded by those who are happy to help and support me, and I offer them love and support in return.
I am protected. I am supported. I am loved.
Today, I am thankful for the amazing support system that I have.
I see that there is no shame in asking for help when I need it, and I vow to ensure that I always reach for the guidance I need.
Self-Reflection Questions:
- What stops me from asking for help when I need it?
- Am I a source of support to those around me?
- How can I ask for help in a way that serves and honors me?
