So true!! Only we can rescue ourselves from drowning when we are in denial mode and full of suspicions.
Self Help is the best help!! 🙂
Good One Leo!!
Very thought provoking!! 🙂
yes, absolutely Nanka. Self help is very much essential.. glad you liked it!
Voice: “Help!! Help!!”
Cap’n: “Ahoy there!! Man overboard!! 😛
Help yourself and swim back to home port.
And no one can do that for you.”
Voice: “Help!! Help!! Self Help!!”

good question…and i think no one else can be the life boat except self…it has to be the one taking us out of the muddle…
yeah.. no one else too I think.. glad u liked it Tweety.. 😀
Your thoughts are so deep just like your words…
Amazing haiku 🙂
thanks very much, Sumit 🙂
Self might be the lifeboat. Maybe even the anchor?
yes, might be the anchor also, Shane.. just hoping we’re not tied to the chain when we drop it 🙂
Bravo! That is one of the “big questions” … nicely done … We must each answer for ourselves, I think, in the privacy of our own hearts.
Thanks, Leo. Good one here.
yeah.. a big question for sure, and yep, we must answer our doubts ourselves.. the others are just a guide I believe 😀 thank you, Jamie.
It might be. 🙂
Nice one!
