Why is it so hard to ask others for help? Is it because we feel like we're bothering them in their busy schedule? Maybe it's because we feel silly or whiny. Whatever the reason, for me it's just easier to keep it to myself and try to fix it alone.
But we're here to help each other. This first song says it best.

We All Need Saving- Jon McLaughlin
come on come on
you have got to move on
this is not the you i know
this isn't real
it's just all you can feel
and that's the way that feelings go
and whether or not it's right or wrong
you'll do what you will do
but when the cloud in the sky starts to pour in your life
its just a storm you're braving
well don't tell yourself you can't lean on someone
cause we all need saving
sometimes
say what you will
but the time that we fill
while we are on the Earth
should not be alone
we were meant to be known
you make me what i'm worth
but i can't keep you from yourself
you'll do what you will do
when the cloud in the sky starts to pour in your life
it's just a storm you're braving
well don't tell yourself
you can't lean on someone else
cause we all need saving
and i don't know
why it has to be this way
and i don't know
the cure
but please believe someone else has felt this before
when the cloud in the sky starts to pour in your life
it's just a storm you're braving
well don't tell yourself
you can't lean on someone else
cause we all need saving
we all need saving
sometimes
sometimes
you have got to move on
this is not the you i know
this isn't real
it's just all you can feel
and that's the way that feelings go
and whether or not it's right or wrong

but when the cloud in the sky starts to pour in your life
its just a storm you're braving
well don't tell yourself you can't lean on someone
cause we all need saving
sometimes
say what you will
but the time that we fill
while we are on the Earth
should not be alone

you make me what i'm worth
but i can't keep you from yourself
you'll do what you will do
when the cloud in the sky starts to pour in your life

I think this is my new favorite song. I'm not saying there's anything wrong, because there's not. Life is good. I was just thinking in general... We shouldn't feel like we can't go to other people when we need help.
Speaking of helping each other... My sister Janet helped me today. After reading her blog about a nightmare she had last night, I feel more motivated to fill my time with the most important things. Things that will matter in the long run. It's incredibly easy to waste time or get distracted and push aside the most important things.
So what am I going to do about it? Well I'm going to start by setting a few goals for this week (actually write them down and hang them on my wall) and I'm going to be committed to them all week! (I said it. So now I really have to be committed)
Here's a link to my sister's blog if you want to read a great post. She's such a great mom.

That song is way good, Cindy. I think that is very true. It is hard to ask people for help, but that's why we are here with families and friends, we need them. :)
