While you don’t, yet you do 🫂💜

the *work* of dreaming is enduring this and holding the essence of the dream

Many years left and I would venture to guess you’ve impacted more people than you think.

I feel ya. 🤙🏼 thanks for sharing 🫂

It’s not over until it’s over 🦭

I'm feeling the opposite. I never thought my life would amount to anything for many years, but now I'm happy to play my small part.

I’d like to support a thread I see surfacing here in the replies, you might not be in the position to judge the kind of impact you have on the world.

In yogic philosophy it’s suggested to not get attached to the fruits of our labors, we practice to practice, do the work because it needs to be done.

As a long time executive coach and healer I can say people seldom have a clue as to the degree and nature of their impact. Not just in the world, but in their own immediate communities.

For example the impact your post had on me today will ripple out into my family and my clients. How far? In what way? Is it enough? Who knows. Not my business.

If find focusing on how I want to be in the world is a more than full time job and the rest takes care of itself.

Thanks for sharing.

It is not easy, but it is what is to be human. No other mammal goes beyond their natural bubble like that. We are neither the strongest, fastest or smartest among all (not physically anyway), it is the strive and dream to copy and develop beyond, that set the humans apart. If your reference is age wise (without judging here) just look at the list below. My personal fav entries are Nelson Mandela becoming president at 75 and Paul Sézanne having his first art exhibition at 56 (boy did they not change things). So fuck it, lets continue to dream and change things (making, breaking, repeat 🤣💜🤙) Or if you happen to be religious Moses dealt with the desert shit after 50s so if that is not a lesson in politics no current one will give you hope.
