September 15, 2017, Prescott-
After a moving project,
this afternoon,
I offered to help a friend,
with a huge task,
this coming weekend.
Her response was:
“You work hard enough,
during the week. It’s
my mess, and I’ll clean it up.”
This person believes that
grown people take care
of grown people’s matters.
I go along with that, in general.
I also believe that there are times
when people of all ages
can bring truth to the adage,
“Many hands make light work.”
We did, this afternoon,
and in the event my friend does
feel overwhelmed,
she has my phone number.
Speaking of grown people
handling grown people’s matters,
I have a pile of work left,
in my back yard.
This weekend looks to be a full one.
Work can be a prayer with the right attitude. Hope your work goes quickly and you get everything done as you plan!

Being fiercely independent, I tend to turn down offers of help. There are times, though, when a helping hand can be invaluable, and I have very much appreciated the help that has been offered over and for thee current time period!

I have noticed, and admired, your independence. Glad that there are people who can help you through the present series of challenges, though.

In fact, work in the service of others is considered an act of worship, in the Baha’i Faith, as in several Christian denominations.

Seems I’ve been handling grown up matters a lot for the last few months. lol Adulting has kept me in Central Alabama most of the last year. smh Hopefully I’m wrapping this all up before November.
