This afternoon my school held a talent show and I found myself overwhelmed with emotion. The talent was without a doubt stunning, as you would expect. Yet, I was in awe of my kids for a different reason. I witnessed young people who were courageous enough to get up in front of the entire student body and share something of themselves…something that holds personal meaning and weight…that maybe they don’t reveal everyday. That show provided a living and breathing reminder that we all have a gift worth sharing…if only we can get out of our own way.
(Day 46–long day apparently equals short blog? But it is honest and marks the one thing that I found most remarkable in my day (thought there is probably more to say about it…I suppose that will have to be enough to count for today’s writing…well, it’ll have to anyway;) )
