And why do we equate needing help as a failure on our part? Do we think we should know how to avoid every trouble, how to do everything thing to remedy any situation? (I’ll be taking out my own diseased appendix.) How many people have we deprived of being blessed because we didn’t let them help us?
You and me both Rachel. so so so many beloved muslim good samaritans in my last few decades. it makes a huge difference on my outlook today. hugs to you
Thanks for sharing this incredibly moving and powerful story, dear Rachel! I've already retold/paraphrased it to one friend since reading it yesterday, am sure I'll be telling more as well. What an incredible moment, with such important and vivid lessons for us all to contemplate and take in.
