Do not be afraid to ask others for assistance.  Do you not realize that people enjoy helping others?  Why so independent?  Give others the pleasure of serving, even if it is serving you.  You deserve it.  You need not work alone.  Open yourself to the gifts of others and in so doing receive far more than what you initially ask for.  Connection is the fabric of life.  There is no giving without receiving and vice-versa, thus reinforcing the unity of all experience.  Open yourself to receiving the gift of connection, the gift of love, for you are, indeed, so very loved.
