I am not the best writer in the world, nor do I think that I have experiences that much differ from the typical urban dweller, but there's a part of me, ultimately and pristinely present, that has a voice. That voice has been the center of my BEing since very young. I did not have to work at it (although I did work at it, out of joy.) That voice comes front and center in any crap I do in the world, and I do a lot of random, tangential crap.
That essence is also deeply, passionately, persistently interested in people, and that voice shares what is discovered, uncovered.
It doesn't matter what shit I do... What job. I've worn a lot of hats... But I've always done the same thing- experience people, be with them, see them, and use my voice.
It has been the same constant for over 30 years...
"Quit competing in the job market and start living in the purpose market."
Amen brother!
"... as an expression of our purpose."
I love that distinction, David.
I was talking with a friend last night who had finally landed her dream job. Full alignment. You could see it in her face, the energy shift.
I feel this very deeply.
