Look for the helpers.

I grew up in Pittsburgh… the home of Mr. Rogers.

I have heard from an early age, Mr. Rogers’ advice to children that when things are scary,

“Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”

There are a lot of flavors of scary right now.
Scary wars.
Prices are soaring.
Fearmongering politics.
Serious illnesses.
Worry about having enough money for the future.

Our brains are working overtime to crank out this stuff.

I think it’s time to revisit Mr. Rogers’ comforting thought.

When things are scary, look for the helpers.

Even (especially) helpers need helpers.

How could asking for help make a difference in your life?
