Hi Ausdog
I think it's the nature of some resources to simply be there when we need them. Whether we need them daily or once a month or even once every couple of years, to know they are there offers an avenue to help us express our struggle (while having people who can reach out to us through our struggle).
I have one person who I know to be the most reliable guy I've ever met when it comes to me being at crossroads which are either so highly confusing I'd declare myself as completely and utterly lost and/or so depressed I feel I just can't go on. I've only ever met with him on a few separate occasions over the years and each time he's changed my life and helped me see more clearly while determining my course. So, I rarely see him but it remains a relief just to know I can see him if I need to. It is the nature of life to dictate there will be times where I'll be led to see him again.
No matter how many skills and abilities we develop on the path to better understanding our self and life, we'll always be tested by life events when it comes to becoming even more conscious. We'll always be tested in the ways of developing our mental, physical and soulful well being.
I believe establishing resources is key to our growth.
