about ten years ago, someone told me that when i walk into room, that it was like someone turned a light on and that i brought a joy and lightness wherever i go. so kind. and yet really hard for me to believe it was true.. so much easier to think ‘nah, they don’t really think that’ and pass it over. but at this point in my life, i needed to know that. i needed to hear it and even though it felt foolish, i\u00a0really<\/i>\u00a0believed them. believing this ended up being a huge step for me! a step towards knowing what’s really true about who i am and what i bring.\u00a0<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
it’s much easier to remember the negative stuff people have spoken\u2014words stick!! james always says that the person who coined that ‘sticks and stones’ saying was a plain idiot. i would agree. words stick and they hurt and they can be cruel. that’s why i feel it’s\u00a0so<\/i>\u00a0important to know what’s true about our friends and family and especially us.\u00a0<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
so i try to make a point of saying it.. telling someone their words are valuable, or that they matter, or how their joy is so contagious or that they make room for others, or that they’re an excellent friend. those sorts of things are [usually] the hardest to believe but in my opinion, the most important to say \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
