Words from a friend

My friend and colleague Matt Booker wrote something that struck me today. He wrote, “I ask you to show up fully prepared and present for each session; pay attention to what has heart and meaning, tell the truth without blame or judgment and be open to outcome rather than attached to outcome. I will do the same.”

It’s interesting how different being open to an outcome is from being attached to an outcome. Obviously we all have wants, desires, needs, likes, wishes, hopes, dreams. These are, simply put, outcomes we are attached to in no small way. However, maybe the specifics of some of those desires may need not be accomplished to produce the true essence of these dreams. Could we not be open to an outcome slightly different than what our feeble imaginations can picture as perfect?

It’s time I started writing again. It’s been a long hiatus. I sense it is good for my soul to write.
