Be strong enough to know when to ask for help. I love that thought COL Mikel J. Burroughs I am however very bad at it. I am lucky in I have a great partner in crime in my wife and have two or three really good friends that know me well enough to help keep my feet on the ground and moving forward. Peace today everyone.

COL Mikel Burroughs---I worked a lot of jobs that was mechanical, in the military and my civilian. With over 30 years of experience there were times I had to talk a few things over with a friend at work, some I couldn't see or something I just couldn't get a handle on. Friends like that understand you and can make you see the answer almost like magic. They few and far between.

Sometimes you don't have to be strong to stand alone circumstances may dictate that whether you want to or not. I know from my own life experiences !

Excellent motivation for the day COL Mikel J. Burroughs!

The strongest man is he who knows when to ask for help because he is not strong enough.
The smartest man is he who knows when to say "I don't know."
The bravest man is he who feels the most fear, but goes forward anyway because something else is more important than his fear.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs and Maj Marty Hogan My problem, I would rather help someone than ask for help. My discovery, when I ask for help I receive a blessing, the one helping receives a blessing, I discover new friends and I save my body some agony. Have a great day my friends.

CPL Hoover you are right. Allow others to gain a blessing by helping you. You are not a burden as long as you don't sacrifice you to ask for the help. Sometimes you get help by just listening closely. You are stronger than you think.
