LOVE OF FAMILY DURING ADVERSITY

Knowing when to hold them and when to fold them was in a Kenny Rogers song I always loved. The Gambler! When dealing with adversity, it stands true. When to reach out to family and friends and when to go it alone. It is always a lonely journey but knowing there are people at your back means the world. As a Social Worker, I have always advised people to gather those in their lives that can be their support team. Using email, texting, phone calls and personal visits give lots of support as sometimes we do not know what we need. Letting people in your life give back. Always be the rock and the strength, it can be hard for some people to take the support. But take the support. Let everyone from the little grandchildren with a good hug to sharing hospital visits to food offerings and just a good listening ear gives the care and love needed in difficult times. Love of family- there when it is needed.
