The more time we spend on our journey the better we get at taking care of ourselves. There is a kind of independence that gets developed and refined each step of the way. It is self-reinforcing and as such we rarely look for support as we move along. We know, though that we cannot leave it there. We have to push through and develop our ability to care for others. There are ways for us to do this that makes us stronger and better and helps others do the same. We can start by listening actively, asking questions, communicating in a sincere way, making life not just about ourselves but about others and stopping along the way to make time to help and care. We know how to take care of ourselves, let’s make sure we do the same for others. Big benefits come from doing both. Indeed….

Loving life when I am caring for others
