Sharon, I'm glad you have been having such a positive experience with having your help accepted and appreciated. A great lesson in the power of "giving by receiving." Thanks for sharing.

Offering Help
As one who has offered more help than usual lately I am learning how deeply meaningful this is, how enriched my life is becoming in yet another new way. Part of this comes from having my help received, and with appreciation. Most of us desire to contribute to friends, family and those at work. When we find we are not able to do so in ways we are accustomed, we certainly can feel a sense of loss. I am experiencing that finding new ways of helping increases my sense of being, power, and value. It is a gift I am giving myself. It helps me stay in the moment, to cherish those giving moments. It helps me cherish myself.
