Myleik Teele shared a reel the other day that struck me, especially after writing the piece yesterday that we just need to do our part.  We spend so much of our time curating our lives, making our daily living look a certain way that we don’t always live that existence.  We try to make our value in something that appears a certain way rather than appreciating the value(s) that we live. Simply, Teel stated that our purpose doesn’t have to be big to have value.  We simply need to live with purpose.  We need to show the truth of who we are because we all play a part in this universe no matter how big or small.  Literally it doesn’t matter the size, it’s the impact. 

The Butterfly Effect suggests that something as small as the flap of a butterfly’s wings can cause a tsunami across the world.  In that regard, our actions, especially the small ones, add up and have impact.  It’s important what we do with our time, not what we make our time look like.  Appearance is fleeting, action is forever.  So, when the universe aligned as it did the other day as described in yesterday’s piece, that truly was enough.  We don’t always see what we do but people still need to see what we do, if that makes sense.  Yes, I still stand behind the silent action, that what we do isn’t necessarily for attention.  But people need to witness that quiet work as well. 

The point in all of this is if you feel stuck or are wandering to land in a spot, keep going.  Don’t allow yourself to stay there feeling like you need to keep up appearances or become something you are not.  Keep going on the journey toward your fullest expression of who you are because that matters the most.  Being who you are.  That is clearly still a journey I am working on and I am sharing it with you because the most humbling part of becoming who we are is discovering that journey isn’t linear by a long shot.  The work may be tiring, it may feel like you’ve reached your end, but those moments when the stars align and the world seems to become the place it’s meant to be and you have your place in it are worth it.  Keep going.
