I find it a lot easier to give grace to other people than to give it to myself. *sigh*Karen Hossinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049412644792482270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34025405.post-5815648868998201622012-02-28T23:27:47.156-05:002012-02-28T23:27:47.156-05:00I am ALWAYS apologizing for my inabilities.

But that societal attitude about valuing the strong works against us. So we continue serving, doing our best to assure the helped that we're glad to do it.Karen Hossinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049412644792482270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34025405.post-18461674958696852542012-02-24T12:52:51.699-05:002012-02-24T12:52:51.699-05:00When my mom was struggling with cancer and in the ...When my mom was struggling with cancer and in the hospital I would help her with whatever she needed and she would ALWAYS apologize. I too thought it was sad that she felt like such a burden when it was really a blessing to be able to do something for her. When I asked my parents to live with us the said "we don't want to be a burden"... It's sad that we live in a world that values ONLY the strong. It is an honor ot serve those that have served us before... Good post...
