The day after we cleared “I don’t deserve help” my day started with two young women and a man coming down and asking if I wanted help erecting a puppy fence. I have asked this man a few times to help with quick little community projects and he always declined.. So to have him come and ask with a big smile was wonderful. He stayed til the end and we finished the fence. Then a girl noticed my house needs another coat of paint and asked if I’d like her to do it! I said yes of course. She got lamps and painted into the dark night and did a professional job. While she was painting yet another woman came down. She visits often, but usually when feeling sad or depressed, for counselling, but this time she said I am feeling very energetic, is there something I can do to help? She helped paint. THEN ANOTHER MAN came down, he saw our half finished out door fire bath tub project and offered to bring it to completion! Then the final piece was when a 6 year old girl came down in the dark with a flash light and asked what was going on and asked if she could hold the lantern for the painters.
I have been slowly completing building a tiny house for a year having a struggle to get anyone to help, offering money and other perks, people would say yes and then not show, or come late or do a crappy job. I had to pull off all the interior walls and redo the insulation as it was done so poorly. So, it has been an exhausting situation. Now in the final stages, so to have all these people come and ask and do a good job is unprecedented. I knew I must have an unconscious belief because it was like I had a spell on me and no COULD help.
