Do You Ask For Help?

When I was younger, I used to do everything myself. I never asked for help.

One day, I was talking to a friend about what I did the day before.

I had taken my lawnmower in for a tune-up.

She was shocked that I lifted my heavy lawnmower into the trunk of my car by myself.

“You could hurt yourself, you know!”

I said: “I’ve been doing this for 3 years and haven’t gotten hurt yet.”

“Next year, call me. I’ll help and we can go out for breakfast.”

So, I did.

And I learned to ask for help with other things.

It was a fun way to share things with others.

The stronger I became emotionally, the weaker I became physically.

Do you ask for help?
