Welcome back. You belong here.
Watching Larry King tonight, I kept hearing "Be yourself, be true."
It fills me with confidence and motivates me to continue being myself. I just wished I had learned to by myself in my 20's. In many ways, I feel I have spent 10-20 years being somebody else, someone safe who others would like or not be offended by.
I don't mean to offend anyone, but often being myself means others will not like what I have to say, it's not the norm, the conservative path of what others expect. But I feel this year is my year to be true to myself.
Spiritual formation, communication and collaboration, social justice, equality, immigration reform and calling out racism and abuse, are some of the themes that are true to my passions and gifting. My commitment to myself and to others is to persevere and become stronger and stronger in who I am.
Have a great day.
Into the future,
