The space between creativity and something new being crafted is me.
The space between me and you is compassion.
The space between compassion and awareness is empathy.
The space between empathy and action is love.
And that is the space that changes the world.
I’ve connected quite a few dots since Part 1.
The path that gets us to becoming lighter is the one that is more and more about less and less.
The path that gets us to becoming brighter is the one that embraces mystery.
As you approach another New Year’s Day (just 39 days from now), may you ponder ways to lighten your load and walk with wide-eyed wonder.
Maybe you need to go left.
Maybe you need to go right.
Maybe you need to stop.
Maybe you need to start.
Maybe you need to stay put and be the best you can be where you are at (and lose the idea/worry/concern of left or right & start or stop).
Whatever you’re thinking, amendments were made to make things better.
Michelangelo carved the marble until he set the angel free. No amendments, no angel.
3 thoughts here:
1) We’re always surprised when traveling light just how free we are to enjoy the journey. What needs to go so you may fly?
2) In the end, you’ll be known for your amendments, not your additions.
3) More and more of less and less is currently the ballad of the hour that the successful can’t quit singing.
…far outweigh the benefits of easy.
They are as follows:
Self Respect.
Peace.
Fulfillment.
Joy.
Experience.
Contentment.
A Story.
Afterall, these are what we’re truly after, right?
Head nod.
…don’t forget about this thing.
This thing is about people.
Let us not forget that.
Let us not forget them.
