i think it is a process that we need to always work on

it is true not only in romantic relationships but in friendships as well

freinds WANT to help each other out, the WANT to be able to comfort us in bad times and laugh with us in good times

it is a give and take in ALL relationships

this ability changed for me when i had my boys

i NEEDED help
for them

it helped me to be humble and ask

we learn to comfort and give and humble ourselves because our children REQUIRE it

i think sometimes we forget that we learned it already
