In this time of high stress for almost everybody, we need some extra care. But many of us were taught to only care for others, not require anything beyond the basics for ourselves. You don’t want to be a burden, or to seem selfish by asking for help or anything that looks like luxury for yourself. What do you need from friends and family? Do you need more hugs or “rubdowns”? Do you need more unhurried time to catch your breath? Do you sometimes need others to make over you and express their love to you? We are all different, but we all need our tanks refilled. An empty tank doesn’t lead to joy.Even if you won’t take care of yourself for you, do it for the people who depend on you.
