And if you...Take car of yourself, enjoy the rest...<br />And if your ever have to go back to Helsinki, let me know, I know a few people that probably would not mind letting you stay in their house. And if not, then you can stay at our place, even if it is an hour away from Helsinki...Graintadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09962590667490564511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29308661.post-35395092318341633892011-09-04T15:54:44.860-05:002011-09-04T15:54:44.860-05:00Keri, I just came across this blog and thought of ...Keri, I just came across this blog and thought of you.

Rest well.
I was struck by...Rest well, my friend. Rest well.<br /><br />I was struck by something you said, though. It was something I needed to hear because it's a lesson I struggle with myself. You said you're learning to accept help...but that it feels yucky. I agree. Sometimes it does. What struck me, though, is this is EXACTLY what our hurt kids are fighting against. Most of them want help, and most of them know they need help and can't do it on their own. But, they fight against it because it feels so yucky. Just like it does to us, knowing we need it and we are dependent on other people to meet our needs leaves us feeling vulnerable, defeated, burdensome, scared, out of control, and just plain yucky. Ironically, when that help does arrive and our needs do get met, the emotions are just the opposite...profound gratitude and humility. So, get through the yuck and enjoy the rest.Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08444891084585965661noreply@blogger.com
