Because rescuing is unhelpful in the long run, and the long run is why we are there and where the growth we experience shows up.

Far be it from me to quote or refer to scripture but it is like..'Give a man a fish and you have fed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you have fed him for a lifetime'.

I often wonder if it is rescue I want. It seems like it. But I wonder if it is that, exactly. Or relief? Or comfort? Or answers to question/s I don't know how to verbalize yet, or fully understand, but the emerging awareness is creating some fear, discomfort, panic.
Thanks for this!
