We would like to take this opportunity to speak to those amongst you who are really struggling hard now. You will feel that this uphill has been too long and too steep, and it feels mayhaps like you are already starting to slide backwards. We are here to remind you yet again that you are not alone on this journey, and that we want you to be sure to ask for assistance whenever it feels like the going gets too rough. You see, although you are surrounded on all sides by beings wishing nothing but to be of assistance to you in this tremenodus task you have taken upon you, we can only do so at your request. So please, do not think that you have to grit your teeth and keep heaving all of the combined weight of your efforts alone, as that is not the case.
But the human mind is nothing if not stubborn, so it behooves us to remind you of this again and again, as there are some out there who have gotten it into their heads that asking for assistance is like admitting defeat. It is not, and it never will be, because this journey has been planned as a communal effort from the very first beginning, and only as a communal effort will you be able to complete it. So please, reach out for help, both from those around you that are tangible, but also remember to ask for help from us, the invisible ones. Because we want nothing more for you than to succeed, and we will do all we can in order to lighten your load and make the incline feel slightly less challenging.
So again we say this: do not fall into the trap of thinking yourself too small and insignificant to be able to succeed in this endeavor, for you are not small. You are magnificent indeed, but even so it is not meant that you have to go into this relying only on your inherent strength. That would not be enough for any of you. No, the only way to be a player in this is to regard yourself as a team player, so do not forget those teammates of yours that are toiling beside you. For whenever you manage to connect, both with your fellow men and with us, your more unseen helpers, you will in that way magnify your contribution in this great plan. So even if you have a hard time lifting your eyes from the ground at the moment, feeling almost overburdened by it all, please remember to do so and to acknowledge the ones that stand around you, ready to help you reignite that inner flame that might be faltering by now.
You are so loved, so do not let yourselves overlook that love by the fact that you have a hard time at the moment. Because now, you might need it more than ever, and now, you also deserve it more than ever. So do not forget to collect what is no more than your due. You are creating a new world, but together, all of us can help share the burden in the way that it was meant to be from the very beginning. Do not berate yourself if you stumble and fall at times, and certainly not by denying yourself the assistance you so readily deserve. For remember, if you do not ask for it, we cannot give it to you, as it is you and only you who can open the door to your heart and let us in.
