Me Too

[Nameless]

I wake to find myself beside this muddy, slick, deep ditch. No idea how I got there. So I'm with several others and one the others is my daughter. We're there to help pull people out of the ditch. So there we are pulling and pushing and yelling encouragement when the side gives way and my daughter and I both go toppling over the edge. We tried to stop our fall before our feet became stuck in the mud at the bottom so we're scrambling to get out.

I say to my daughter, "Yikes, we need a super hero". We hear a bang and look up just as a huge metal door appears on the side of the bank we are facing. The door flies open and...

Good golly, Fabio never looked That good, lol. He steps down grabs my daughter, tosses her over his should like a lightweight sack of taters and throws her to the bank. I'm thinking 'all RIHGT'. But then he only offers me a hand up. OMG.

I immediately realized why he didn't just pull me out like he did her. And this is where thought comes into play.

When I said we need a super hero my thoughts were 'save my daughter' and all I need is a little help. Which is exactly what I got.

Who says Otherwhere doesn't have a sense of humor?

Fabio to the rescue LOL. I can imagine the scene  .
I think you are so used to putting others needs before yours, that this still translates into your dreams. Our needs are just as important. If you want to help others, first you need to help yourself. I always think about the instructions on the airplanes. Put your oxygen mask first before you help your child.

Oh wow, they really say that on airplanes. I had no idea, I don't fly, lol. Makes perfect sense though. If this happens again LightBeam I'm sending Fabio to YOU!
