" I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you! " - Samwise Gamgee
Big words from a small hobbit. This is what accountability should be. This is what brotherhood is!
Galatians 6:5 - for each one should carry their own load.
Galatians 6:2 - Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.

Sam:
[Both are overcome by exhaustion]
Do you remember the Shire, Mr. Frodo? It'll be spring soon. And the
orchards will be in blossom. And the birds will be nesting in the hazel
thicket. And they'll be sowing the summer barley in the lower fields...
and eating the first of the strawberries with cream. Do you remember the
taste of strawberries?
Frodo:
No, Sam. I can't recall the taste of food... nor the sound of water...
nor the touch of grass. I'm... naked in the dark, with nothing, no
veil... between me... and the wheel of fire! I can see him... with my
waking eyes!
Sam:
Then let us be rid of it... once and for all! Come on, Mr. Frodo. I can't carry it for you... but I can carry you!
"Thus
far did I come laden with my sin,
Nor could aught ease the grief that I was in,
Till I came hither. What a place is this!
Must here be the beginning of my bliss!
Must here the burden fall from off my back!
Must here the strings that bound it to me crack!
Blest cross! blest sepulchre! blest rather be
The Man that there was put to shame for me!"
- Christian
