Let the good in..



More from Boundaries: Don't wall yourself in and refuse to accept help. That's keeeping the bad in and the good out. Abused people often do that.

Insights from the book boundaries



I like to read and one of the books I am reading right now is Boundaries by Henry Cloud and John Townsend. After I read a chapter I go back through and take notes.

This quote means that everyone has a daily workload to carry. Some people don't and are irresponsible. Some people carry others workloads in addition to their own. They are called codependents and enablers. But sometimes we legitimately need help. Our workload has become overwhelming. A burden. In these instances we should be willing to accept help. and vice versa. We should help those with burdens if we are able.
