It's opened my eyes to all the different ways there are to have a presence and to make it meaningful When we show up for someone. When we listen. When we do what we say we will. When we say the unpopular thing. Some moments, I believe, call for boldness and extravagance. There's a time to sweep people off their feet. And there's also a time to bring the ground back beneath time. Where trust is exchanged. Understanding too. Where human connection means more than whatever I planned on performing.
I want my presence to mean something. To make a real impact. In the past, I've thought that meant giving people prestige, delivering on whatever pledge I've made, spoken or unspoken. I thought it meant being loud …and maybe sometimes it does. But now I know it's also in the quieter moments. Sometimes it's the things we don't say at all. There may not be applause or laughter or standing ovation on the other side but I am learning that it's in the moments when I place the people in front of me above performing that my impact resounds.
Positively Purging-I welcome your feedbacks in the comments and your likes and passing the real life wisdom on to others as I embark on this new venture of "positively purging", as I know each of these pieces represents something…
