Writing as a second career
Like memoir, stories of encouragement, stories of overcoming and triumph

Our connectedness as humanity, I can see a piece of myself from each of them.
Able to sit in that moment with them.
Not have sympathy but have empathy for the triumph
I see the golden thread that weaves all of us together.

Our worlds are noisy, you have to sit in silence
If we all listen to our own inner voice, the voice speaking within us, guiding us, speaking in us…
Just listen
When you create a space for presence you allow the magic to come in.

It starts with listening and being silent and waiting for your self to speak to you.
