Being Supportive

"Behind every great man there is an even greater woman" Unknown.
Amazingly this was adopted as a woman's right slogan in the 70's and even today sometimes its roles are reversed. Rarely. I am not writing to say that men need to support women because there is a lack of that. I believe there is a wholesale lack of support of anyone anywhere.
Perhaps we need to look at these ideals, so that we can strengthen not only our marriages, relationships and work partnerships. The I am number one attitude can only go so far in this world until it takes a concerted effort to reach a goal. Then that I am number 1 attitude is an anchor. There can only be a single number 1, groups that have multiple number one's fail.
There comes many times, where one person can achieve greatness with the help of others. There comes many more times where a group can achieve greatness because the help of one, or even many. I think we get caught up in doing our own thing, and cant even spare a few minutes for another person. It really is a shame that it may take an hour of your time each week to help someone achieve greatness, or let alone a goal in their life, but we cant even get off our asses to help out.
