The Pick Up, is how my family structure seems to work. I grew up with it and understand it only because it is done out of one simple ingredient-LOVE! Simply, the pick up is where one falls-the other Picks Up. The pieces may be broken, the other Picks Up. Not by any means every single piece, but picks up any small jagged piece capable only of the Pick Up. This allows room for GROWTH, ABUNDANCE, CALM, PEACE, ACCEPTANCE and of course CHANGE to move ahead.
The Pick Up is about REACING OUT. The reasoning and nature of this is effortless, if one hurts then we hurt. The Pick up is meant and given because of and for the love a Family. If someone looks blue, worried, tired someone Picks Up-reaches out. When one falls, the OTHER picks up. Not overly or in any grand form, just enough to allow for some relief. RELIEF is the Outcome when someone picks up. RELIEF is VITAL for any amount of strain on a whole and GLOBALLY.
I personally believe the pick up works tremendously. What it is, is Team Effort! If one person on a B-Ball team is hurt the other picks up. THAT IS the sense, miracle and MAGIC that comes from a family pick up. That is where Miracles occurs. To be any part of that source of Miracle in any shape is not only riveting, it can be contagious full of positive HOPE of Reliance and Acceptance. It can be so contagious that it is not only seen within the family, it then REACHES OUT globally to a un surpassing VICOTORY. The game is Won! *NOT a Numbers Win* Purely it is a win of surviving, thriving through heart and love and any amount of change or obstacle, to see each other to the Finishing Line. Then becoming stronger still. Pattering slowly over time where in the end-everyone is a winner.
Another example I can see is at a restaurant. The team and family then becomes The Pick Up. If someone is sick, one miraculously picks up. If a member of "the family restaurant team" is having a bad day, blundering through it-a miracle again occurs, Someone then reaches out to the PICK UP. Customers become a big part of the pick up. Lets say a regular comes in, the same time, picks the same table, orders the same meal. If that customer is upset, it may effect the compounds of that restaurant-if there is a Pick Up of --reaching out--, all troubles can then and will wash away.
That is the Miracle of humanity and the Magic of being part of anything. Showing value in and for that customer is the Miracle and comfort of a family. We Pick Up, merely to continue on, go on, trek along, and having a helping hand in Looking UP is all that is needed. That is a miracle of surrendering to love, friendship and loyalty within the family Pick UP. Though it is NOT a tea for tat or an *IOU* It is from the heart simply, with out any EXPECTATIONS!!!! Nothing is expected within a Pick up Family nor is it returned, you can not give back a "heart" gesture.
I have my Family on all four sides, I am not sure how other families thrive and survive-each family is personally valued!
I do know one thing-- every-- single person in any form of family IS NEEDED, WANTED, LOVED, and VITAL for the family to allow growth and change. Reaching out and Picking UP is a source of comfort, and appreciation.
IF WE can then try to look at OUR Cities, Towns, Neighbourhoods, Nation and the World as Family Pick up....I believe that Peace, Trust, Friendship, Acceptance, Healing and Abundance is possible for all the World SIMPLY. The pick up works from looking within, then outwards only.
