nothing to prove
from Finding What's True Hosted by Sarah Davis
My "little sister" (I put this in quotes because there's nothing small about her - she's 5''11' and larger than life most days) and I talk on today's episode about feeling lost early in life, seeking what brings you peace and joy, the slow journey to finding your meaning, and letting go of the worry around other people's judgements. Often we see someone doing life in a way that "we could never imagine" for ourselves; and that's only because that way of life isn't true for us. It wouldn't fit. But we compare and romanticize other people's lives finding questioning their choices, muttering to ourselves perhaps "sheesh, what is she trying to prove?" because we're afraid somehow that we're falling short of an idea that perhaps we don't even subscribe to. Everyone has days where they fall short, and that person we're comparing ourselves agains often is not in any kind of place of wanting to prove anything, they're simply taking the step by step everyday journey towards what honest to goodness brings them joy; if you're my sister, that means, parenting six kids hitting the CrossFit gym and waking up at 6am to milk a long haired cow.
