I’ve learned that poeple will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

This week was about seeing friends over lunch and catching up… Something about these dates that makes us realize the power of in-person connections. Isn’t it these simple pleasures we missed last 2 years? An opportunity to just to update and share the going-ons in our lives- no bragging – okay – maybe – a little is all good – then there’s the embassassments and mistakes made and those idiotic errors we made – we are not to divulge our shortcomings…
It’s not Facebook to seek validation and acceptance – it’s not about the fun envy-worthy vacations and how your kid is “above-average” brilliant – but about losses, illnesses, disappointments all the while knowing that there are also plenty of positive experiences in our lives that continue to inspire us. Nothing like being seen for who we are – where we have no fears to show how vulnerable we all are.
It’s raw.
It’s real.
It’s authentic.
Great Minds Discuss Ideas; Average Minds Discuss Events; Small Minds Discuss People …
which means my mind comes in all sizes – SML or more like Great; Average(tis me!) and Small (alas, sometimes I am that)?
I’m just human. It’s complicated.
But it’s tough in heels ! Mudra of Heaven & Earth touching for balance … to the rescue for this Warrior in out of reach things dreams and ideas.
