the role we play
“In indigenous ways of knowing, it is understood that each living being has a particular role to play. Every being is endowed with certain gifts, its own intelligence, its own spirit, its own story. Our stories tell us that the Creator gave these to us, as original instructions. The foundation of education is to discover that gift within us and learn to use it well.”
- Robin Wall Kimmerer
Thanks to The Leading Edge for putting this quote in front of me today–it may have to go into the copy on my website for Santiago.
As I read this, I couldn’t help but see (and smile):
The Authentic Life
Unique gifts and talents given to us by our Creator
A purpose to fulfill–a part of the greater, grander picture (I’ve used a puzzle reference before)
The assignment to discover our unique gifts and talents
Use them in the service of others
It’s everything I rambled about over the last three-plus years in a concise paragraph.
Little things like this give me even more confidence, as if I needed it, that I’m on the right path.
See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,
JC
