YOU Belong HERE
I think it's odd how our human nature has an insatiable desire to belong...to fit in, to feel a part of something. Maybe it's that part of us that needs to believe in something that's bigger than "us".
In my early adulthood I used to drive down to the beach on the weekends when I lived in Charlotte, NC. No matter how stressful my week had been it just felt good to be in the presence of a huge ocean and all its magnificence. Inevitably I'd leave refreshed and much more at peace...ready to attack another week.
Much of what I do now is educating people to step beyond their own preconceived notion of themselves...to "step into their greatness" to quote my friend Les Brown. How can you "belong" and at the same time "step out"?
It's simple really. Who you are and how you fit into this great symphony of human existence is only fully realized when you meet your full potential. In other words, you're already a member of the club...but you gotta be who you "really are" in order to belong!
After all...you might as well be yourself. Everyone else is taken!
