As much as possible, we all try to do things on our own. In my case, the reason for this is because you rely less on others and you get to learn new things on how to deal with the situation. Still, there are times when we can't do it all and there are certain instances where we do hit a wall regarding some obstacles that come our way. Times like that is when a helping hand comes in handy. Situations like that remind of me of the song "Hand To Hold On To". by John Mellencamp.
There's no shame in admitting that you can't figure it out. You've done all that you can and nobody can accuse you for lack of effort. Sometimes we should just put aside our pride and accept help from those who offer it willingly. People who are willing to help others are a rare breed indeed. I dare say that such individuals are heaven sent especially if they are there when you need them the most.
No matter who they are, we should always be grateful that they are there to help. We should never forget that they lent us a hand when no one else would. So when they need help, we should reciprocate in the same manner. We do not because it's obligated but because we want to return the favor. Everybody needs a hand every now and then.
