Interestingly enough, the person that I most needed to reach out to, reached out to ME this evening. She has been in rehab after a hip replacement. I have been to see her a couple of times. I have been "busy." She has been rehabbing. I have been busy. She is now home.
I think that we need to be aware of the needs of others. At the same time I think that we need to be aware of what our needs might be and allow others to tend them. Sometimes it is hard to NOT be the pro active person. Sometimes we need to relax and allow ourselves to receive care and attention. And in so doing we are actually giving the gift of giving to that person. We all need to give. And we all need to feel that our giving is accepted and appreciated. We need to be gracious givers and appreciative receivers.
