zoethe's that I had to steal an excerpt from:
"The World Does Not Wait
My entry yesterday elicited an unexpected reaction from some people. To summarize, it came down to, "you shouldn't treat the ability to cope as superior to the inability to cope."
Except, it is.
I realize that a statement this blunt is probably going to make people angry, and it may cost me a chunk of my audience. But I'm going to say it anyway: the world doesn't care about your problems, and if you let them rule you, it will punish you for them."
Her post had more to it than that, expanding and explaining. But I have to say that I agree. Coping isn't always easy, and there are time when you fall down. Coping can be letting someone else help you for awhile.
Last night watching Firefly they kept referencing an "old" saying that sorta fits with how I see this coping thing: "If you can't walk, crawl. If you can't crawl, find someone to carry you." Just gotta remember not to make someone else carry you all the time.
