they can become personally expansive and powerful contagious in terms of the world we want to create.
Today, as things are emanating out of me at great speeds, I am remembering all of the professional conferences that I have been to in my life. These trips, at great expense to my employer where ones in which I can not ever remember thinking that I would be coming back with one thing useful for me. I would sigh, and think, “Oh well”, at least I will get a break, “from what” I think now, from my life, and have money and time to go shopping. Then one day, I went to a conference where a very young woman showed a slide show and told “her story” of a major fifteen day hike that she had done with her sister. The growth and the sharing of her experiences with herSelf and her sister had the whole room crying. I left feeling like I had, for the first time, at a professional conference, experienced something real.
So, as I prepare to speak out, and up more and more, I feel the benefit, to me, to my family and to the world I want to be a part of, to simply share more and more of my experience with mySelf and others.
And frankly, as a very wise woman said to me once, “what would be the benefit in me going quietly.”
