Give And Get

 For many people it seems so much easier to give help than to ask for it.  We seem to be able to respond to someone who genuinely needs help which is to our credit.  But why do we find it so hard at times to ask for help?  Think of asking for help not as a put down to your ego or weakness, or lack of knowledge, but as an opportunity to allow someone else to respond and be of service.  By asking for help when you need it, you give someone an opportunity to get out of selfishness and even their own isolation.  In this way, you asking might be helping another person.
