Affirmation for March 7, 2011: Asking For Help

The healthy and strong individual is the one who asks for help when he needs it.  Whether he's got an abscess on his knee or in his soul.- Rona BarrettThought of the day:It's difficult to ask for help. It can sometimes feel like an admission of helplessness, or even an acknowledgment that there is a problem. But the truth is no one goes through this world all by him or herself. Everyone, at some point, needs help from someone else. Not asking for help may seem like a tough thing to do, but it takes a stronger person to face their demons and ask for the help they need.Have a cooperative day!TeamDS

very true but you have to find the right person to ask for the help as some people are very selfish and not giving towards others

Seems like the older you get, the more reluctant you are to ask for help. Not to mention, I would only ask for help from someone I trusted at the highest level and I\'m only 29.

I teach my children (and forever am reminding myself) that asking for help and admitting when we goof or that we merely need to talk instead of screaming 3 days later from emotional \"BACKUP & BREAKUP\" is the ONLY way to become better people.
