COT: Ask for help when you need it. Too often we let stubbornness or pride prevent us from asking for help or receiving help with grace when offered. When you accept help it not only helps you, but very often the person providing help benefits from the good feelings that come from helping others. YHC shared a recent experience where this lesson has hit home and is attempting to apply it in his own life.

You have to do planned uncomfortable things so when the unplanned uncomfortable things happen you will be stronger to handle it because you have accustomed yourself to uncomfortable things.

COT: Edward Stanton and Abraham Lincoln were rivals. Abraham Lincoln saw past his rival’s insults to see his redeeming attributes, which helped the union preserve democracy, abolish slavery, and win the civil war. Think of someone you disagree with, dislike or maybe hate. See past that and identify a redeeming quality for the greater good of our society. Practice this and practice loving each other. Our society will be a better place.

• Be proud of who you are and where you come from, and don’t let anyone convince you that you shouldn’t be.
