Be a Helper, It Makes Life Better!
Manage episode 491513861 series 3618408
In this week’s Sunday conversation, Delbert and Hess reflect on the helpers of the world. Hess has had quite the list of things on the farm that needed to be repaired the last 6 weeks—her geothermal furnace, the brakes on her boat trailer, and then this week, the well pump on the farm and other components needed replaced. Delbert made the point that helpers can get good feelings by helping—an endorphin rush by helping, and also by figuring out solutions to problems. Helpers come in all sizes. There are the police, the nurses, firefighters who of course are helpers. Delbert also appreciates the lifeguards at Turner pool and all the helpers that cleaned it up after it was flooded by the river this spring. She also appreciates how good it feels to walk in her neighborhood Trader Joe’s. All the people there are so helpful and friendly. Hess really loves the connections she has with the people she depends on to keep everything running at the farm. She respects their abilities and knowledge. She loves them as people. Hess and Delbert also bring up the point that it’s important to ask for help. It gives others a gift to be able to help. Edie Windsor needed help to fight for the legal rights of her marriage to her wife Thea, and Robbie Kaplan, took her case. Mr. Roger’s says there are three key’s to being an ultimate success: “Number one, be kind; Number two, be kind, and Number three, be kind.”
