Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we’re supposed to be
and embracing who we are.
~Brene Brown
how I came to be here…
inquiry for today~ what is truly transforming?
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter
what those who are far think
or what I, who am close, say.
What matters is what rises up
the stem of your soul that
feeds your unopened blossom.
But we don’t live in a vacuum,
it’s true. So, yes, we need the
mind to be a sieve and the
heart to be a sponge.
How? I’m still learning, but
what else would we do, other
than pick up things and put
them down?
I know it doesn’t feel it now,
but you are the pearl freeing
itself from your shell.
~Mark Nepo
