The Importance of a Shoulder

Have you ever considered the importance of a shoulder?  Yes, it does hold your head and can signal others to your indifference to a situation.  But I am talking about the strength and emotional support a shoulder can offer. 

When we shoulder the responsibility, we relieve someone else of the burden. 

When we offer a shoulder to cry on, we give emotional support.

A shoulder can:
  • dry tears
  • lessen physical pain
  • lessen emotional pain
  • chase away loneliness
  • relieve stress
  • calm fears
  • lessen anxiety
  • give hope
  • offer strength
  • share joy
If you get the chance to offer a shoulder, don't pass it up.  It will be a blessing to both you and the receipient.
