How is the world a better place when I play big?
The world is is better when I play big because I am here to serve with my gift of support, perspective, energy, and presence.
I am an encourager. I am a compassionate encourager. I am a supportive, compassionate encourager and teacher. All of these things were prompted into "being" as they were not available to me at the time I needed them most.
A dear friend of mine experienced an upheaval in her life which caused us to no longer be in our friendship relationship as it was. I am truly grateful for the friends we got to be at the time we were able to. I learned the depth of one another relationships that we can all experience...triggering power and strength. Lighting us up from the core and that that "feeling" doesn't have to be misinterpreted as "sexual", but it is how the core of our creative and soul energy feels. It love connection and the "one another" walk.
And that is a big gift I share forward into the lives of others I encounter or get to be in experience with me.
But when there was this dark void and a bunch of unsolicited commentary and opinions coming at me, I needed compassion. I needed someone in my space that would encourage me. I needed the support to keep on keeping on.
The quote "Be the change that you desire to see in the world" (often credited to Mahatma Gahndi) is what helped me to choose to step into and up to the challenge of being the change. Perhaps, if I put this into the world, I can at least be inspired by seeing it in action.
So I chose to encourage. ANd I could see how many people find encouragement "suspect". And I realized that it was indeed "missing" in the lives around me because it wasn't in practice.
This is where I learned the gift that the perfection is in practicing. ANd our practicing allows for the becoming.
People around me and even clients began to "see the change" in their lives and their lives changed. This "unseen" gift giving tangible results. This unseen practice giving way to the experience of becoming MORE OF the person they have desired to be. This becoming in THEIR lives leading to better and best experienced all around them and in the world that we are in.
Now THAT is encouraging!
Seeing myself gift to the world my bigger and better self to inspire others to live and do the same heart
