It’s never that easy at the start
But once you do and do again
It gets much easier to just ask.
People may still let you down
And you’re right – it’s often better
To just do things ourselves.
That doesn’t mean alone though.
Invite them to watch if nothing else:
“I’m going to do this with or without
Your help” kind of thing!
Who knows, people might just
Surprise you. They often do.
