Young adults need a good portion of unconditional loving. I have been struck lately how much we all need a solid foundation underneath us but how if it is not received when we are young that the rest of life takes the hit. I sent an early morning text and then another one at noon today to encourage a dear one on her first day at post-secondary schooling. I know stepping beyond comfort zones is challenging. My own "firsts" require a certain amount of courage.
I start a new course tomorrow evening and I am feeling the stretch and all the dark voices crowding in, buzzing as they try to find my vulnerable "not good enough" spot. I could resonate today with my dear one's fragility.
Do we ever see our own astonishing light without being loved first? Be gentle and encouraging to someone today. Start early in someone's life to bless them and hold up the mirror so that they can see how beautifully they shine.
Peace,
Suzanne
