Hey Friend,
Sometimes we can get so caught up in our own lives and in our own stories that we don't realize how much we impact the people that we encounter every day. People watch us. People are aware of us. I know at least for me sometimes I can forget how much influence I actually have in my community and in my world. Influence is something that we talk a lot about our culture today and sometimes we can believe the untruth that influence only happens when you have millions and millions of people watching you. Like famous people on the internet. But in reality, we all are influencing someone. Our stories, our lives, the way we live them, what we do, how we show up -- it influences those around us. So I want you to go about your day today with a greater awareness of who you are influencing, who you could be encouraging, who your life is touching. Think about that. What great privilege and responsibility we have to live confidently, live compassionately with ourselves and for others.
I'll meet you here tomorrow.
