Asking for Help - Part 2

I remembered another way of asking for help after I wrote the previous post.  And that is asking for help from a higher power. Doesn't matter which one: God, Goddess, Jesus, Bodhisattva, Fairies, Angels, the Universe, the Greater Mind, Great Mystery, even the power of your own mind, amplified with intention.  Ask for miracles. Be specific if you can. Then let it go.  See what happens. I get miraculous results many times. And then give thanks. Give thanks for what you already have. Give thanks for living. Give thanks for the sun coming up.  And ask for help. Be humble. Admit you can't do it all by yourself. Then be open to the gifts.

Asking For Help

Asking for help is often hard, especially for Asperger's people who have trouble with social communication in the first place. My home project that I have to do now was causing suicidal thought, suicidal dreams, and alot of whining. That never helps tho my Facebook groups were supportive and helpful. Then I discovered I had to ask for help, even to find help to hire. And it was very hard, but once I did it the results are amazing and have lifted my depression and I feel like I am going to have the homespace I wanted, instead of a disaster which is what it seemed like last month. Asking for help sends out waves and creates its own energy. It can even help with social communication because then you have something to talk about. It can lead to more lasting friendships and social circles. Even admitting I couldn't do it myself, which also led to a bad back and almost not being able to walk, was the first step. I didn't want to need help, I wanted to do it all myself, but many things need more than one person to move and clear jungle, I'm 61 years old after all. I'm going to keep writing what I think are helpful posts for Asperger's people, and some of it is from my perspective of being older, and having learned much over the years.
