Are We Really Here Now to Help?

[IndigoSalvia]

I've been tripping up in my head when I use the word "heal" or "help" other (or self for that matter) because, within me, there is a presumption or condition tied to that word. What rings more true to me (and isn't quite as distorted) is to ask: how can I be with another? Am I being (with other/self) as deeply as I can?

I chose the verb to be because it is the least-distorted verb I could come up with ... to simply be. How can I be with another deeply? And, that is a question that I can walk toward answering, without tripping too much. Each of us can answer it for ourselves.

I hear some of these answers in our posts. Not necessarily expecting healing or helping per se, just being with other/self deeper and deeper.
