Don'T Take It Personal

After multiple failed attempts at trying to help her she told me. 
"Don't take it personal." 
"I can't allow you to help me when i don't even know how to help myself yet." 
Finally then i understood, she didn't take help from others not because she was stubborn but because she was broken. 
Her strength to admit her brokenness made her stronger than she could see. She soon will be healed with herself.
