NEXT SHOW / PREVIOUS SHOW
your stories are a gift. your time is a gift. your attention is a gift. and when you share generously with others it can feel like you're making a connection. but over time, if there isn't reciprocity, it can start to feel bad and you realize how one sided it's been. i don't think that every action requires a response in kind, and we don't give gifts expecting a return, but when you receive very little it's hard to keep trying.
i'm thinking about where i want to put my energy. and i'm not yet sure how to make that decision, but my energy is limited. and although i feel pulled strongly towards new connections and excited about exploring possibilities, i also want to be better at celebrating my existing connections. particularly the ones that make the effort. and in the same way that i don't expect every connection i investigate to be mutual, i shouldn't respond just to respond. i could simply prioritize the ones that i know already feel good and save some energy to continue exploring others.
i'm writing this here, and i'm going to try, but damn that allure of potential. perhaps it's not so simple.
