It’s important to be kind, to help others and to have each other’s back.
Just like everything else, I think it needs a healthy balance. We also need to allow each other to stand on their own.
I know in my own life, when I asked for ‘too much’ help, it would dig me into a deeper hole.
This is really apparent when the help is financial. When someone lends you money it only puts you deeper in debt. Freedom doesn’t come from debt.
I think emotional freedom works the same way. If ‘help’ turns into control… it only puts you further away from your joy, as you are making life choices based on their framework for life, not your own.
We always have to do our own work and build our own path in order to fully grow with it.
We can’t afford to give up our control.
So own your place and space in the world. The best direction to move is forward.
