One thing I have noticed is farmers are the very first ones to go help a neighbor in need. But a farmer will typically do anything in his or her power not to ask for help. This was pointed out to me as I was asking a friend about whether I should write about what we were going through. I sent her a private message so I wouldn’t put it out there for the world to know and she laughed at me because she said it proved my point: I don’t like asking for help.
