How Do Yo Receive Encouragement?

We are not meant to be isolated.

We are not required to do everything by ourselves.

This was a revelation to me.

Finally getting help and then receiving the benefits of it, opened me up to a new idea.

The idea that I was part of a community. 

I discovered that living in community is how humans are meant to live.

We are meant to lend our strengths and insights to each other.

We all have strengths.

We all have value.

We receive encouragement by sharing what we have with others and allowing them to share their strengths with us.

By slowing down and allowing ourselves to become inspired.

By taking in and observing what is going on around us and asking how we can be part of an uplifting community.

By admiring and supporting what others are doing which uplift and benefit others.

By admiring and supporting the simple things.

By building something simple that we, ourselves, love.

By being quiet and listening within, and valuing what we hear, and doing it.
