Don't
be afraid to ask for what you need. There is no prize for the person
who needs the least in life. Relating with others, bonding and
connecting involves being vulnerable and sharing your needs. Give &
Take. This was really hard for me, it still is very difficult. I was
raised to be very self sufficient, to give without taking. But we're not
meant to live on this planet alone, we have to rely on each other and
be open to receiving. That doesn't mean to weigh people down with our
needs or to be entitled. And it doesn't mean to expect all of our needs
to be met by others. It just means that we have the courage to be who we
are and ask for what we need from others. They may say yes, they may
say no. Who knows? Maybe we'll get lucky and feel the interdependence at
the peak of relating. But only if we roll the dice and ask.
