In a society that puts value on a person, a life, based on productivity, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that accepting help makes us less than worthy.
There are plenty of things going awry in today’s world, and we should say something. But we can’t only focus on the negative. That’s not how a life is lived or at least lived well.
You see, we need each other to hold on to hope. I couldn’t have come up with that solution on my own; I needed my dad and mom to help me.
I learned my lesson with these labradorite earrings – always wear backs on earrings even if it seems unlikely they could slip out. But I learned an even more important lesson – don’t give up.
I’m keeping the purple toaster to remind me that going slow is OK. It may even be advantageous in the long run.
