there is oh so much I can say about this concept of “help,” helping others, and asking for help.
how deeply help is tied to our worthiness, our belonging, our being seen as a good person.
and what i am learning is, when we ask for help or help, we often are subconsciously hooking ourselves into a dynamic in which we either need to prove our helplessness or give in a way that actually masks our deeper motives for helping.
so i ask, is helping or asking for help bringing us towards greater connection?
i believe it has the power to do so. however, this culture of extraction, makes help a sticky topic.
