YES! I am still trying to find a closet in my house where I can go in and actually feel what I need. Which is to say, I think our challenge at knowing what we need has so much to do with how energetically and emotionally porous we feel, which has so much to do with how we were raised, which leads me back to: how do we raise our kids to know what they need AND be interested in what other people around them need? Our forever conversation...
Loved so much about this--and the list of things you'd given your neighbors/been offered and so on really grabbed me--it's such a good reminder of the ways we can help each other.
ive thought about putting up a board with what people are asking for and what they have to offer. what would be on yours? some of my offerings are like "listening to you while i unload the dishwasher" but sometimes you NEED THAT
FEELING THIS: “No one tells you that the hardest part of asking for what you need is knowing what you need.”
