Letting others take care of your self care

by BNI New Zealand

This weeks offering from Wilma of Women Like Me is particularly touching.  It talks about the comfort that is to be found in reaching out and being in relationship with others.  It is written from a womens perspective – but is equally relevant to us guys as well.  At the end of the day – it is what we are striving to do through our BNI chapters.  Imagine if we could take this message to our communities and to the world at large….

Last week I talked on Peggy Nolan’s The Stepmom’s Toolbox Radio Show about martyrdom. I have included the link as all her and co-host Erin’s radio shows are available for downloads so you can still listen to them. That is a great win as they cover heaps of issues every woman struggles with.

What hit home afterwards was that we have become so isolated, so alone in our quest for a way out of our misery. It is sad to see how little support we are getting. We all seem to be yearning for guidance and wisdom from other women we love and trust to make sense of the things in life that do not seem to be right. Like never being acknowledged, not knowing where to put our love as it often gets thrown back into our faces or misused and last but not least we do not even know how to take care of ourselves.

Has it ever been different?  Were there times when we had access to wise women who could help us out?

And that got me dreaming.
