"You only have the burdens on you that you choose to put there." ~Brandon Lee
While not totally accurate, many of us spend our days picking up burdens and problems that are not ours to carry. Helping a friend doesn't mean picking up their "monkey" That only results in two exhausted, frustrated persons. Help if you can, but if you can't, leave the monkey where it belongs.
A prescription for lightening the load. For every burden you carry, find something to be grateful for. What did your burden make you grateful for?

Cpl Scott McCarroll I get it. I hate asking for help too. Maybe that's a lesson we have to learn

Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs great motivational quotes today I like "I removed the burden from their shoulders; their hands were set free from the basket. In your distress you called and I rescued you, I answered you out of a thundercloud; I tested you at the waters of Mariah." - Psalm 81:6-7
