I posted this picture on Facebook this week and truly
believed in what it said.
Today I had an opportunity to share a small piece of my life story
with a young woman. It is interesting how the conversation came about and I
believe with all my heart that it is always, always divine intervention.
Sometimes it takes a lot of bravery to tell your story. You
fight back tears but you know in the core of your being you need to be strong
and tell it anyway. Sometimes, the tears need to be shared also. I have been blessed to be presented with more
opportunities than I can recall to share my experiences and learn later how
much it has helped someone. I have been able to tell one or two of my life
stories in front of large crowds of people and allowing so many people to see
your emotion is not always the easiest thing but I am always amazed at who my
words touched. I don’t take credit for that because the words that seem to have
the most impact are the ones I never intended to say. They weren’t in my notes,
they are what I call “Heart Words”.
Today’s conversation was also a healing process for me.
Because of sharing with someone of my trials, I was able to relive those just a bit
and address some of my feelings by sharing.
By sharing your
experience you also meet some of the most incredible people and you get to know
them on a level that most superficial relationships never attain. When you see
those people the next time, you look at each other, really look at each other,
and that look is with knowing eyes and hearts.
So…..Be Brave! Share those thoughts and feelings. Listen to
your inner voices that tell you it is okay and this is what you need to be
doing. You will have an opportunity to help someone if you just pay attention. Guess what? It probably helps you more than them.
