Just a phone call away

When do you ask for help? I know I tend to be stubbornly self-reliant but willing to say yes to any deserving cause. I know I have talked about the line from my mission statement before, the one about taking care of myself so I can take care of others and how I often don't do this. Even more difficult is letting someone else take care of me.

I think I see others as I see myself: generally self-sufficient. So sometimes it surprises me when someone takes me up on the offer of "call anytime." Maybe what I am trying to say is don't hesitate to call ... I do not care what time it is. I will take you to the airport, look after your pet, lend an ear, help you move, bring you food and sit by your side until what ails you has passed.

The thing is, this is who I am; I serve, help, assist, enable, facilitate. It's all about me making sure it's all about you. And as long as I am a part of this little community of family and friends, and as long let God be a part of it all, I know I will be taken care of along the way.

Just call my name and I'll be there.
