“I like to think of coaching as helping people to live fully into that which is tremendously “right” in our lives and to create structures that support this virtuous essence, rather than the approach often espoused in institutional counseling of diagnosing and “fixing” what is “wrong” in a person’s life…when it comes to personal growth, the more we can address the root issues of disturbances in our lives, the more efficiently we can move through these trials and come into deeper levels of fulfillment and service…
This morning I sat in the soft sunlight listening to an exquisite chorus of birds, crickets and my neighbor’s lawn being mowed. Feeling a level of inner clumsiness, perhaps a sort of emotional hangover, I identified with the whirling hum of dueling motors. So I sat and I listened to this all too perfect metaphor, and I wondered what alignment sounds like. I began to hear a melody yearning to be voiced. As I sang this simple song, the surrounding sounds harmonized as if they were meant to fit together in some ephemeral symphony. You see, the issues we face today stem not from an overabundance of evil deeds or fossil fuel powered machines, but rather the frequency with which our songs go unsung. As human beings we are in a position to hold space for integration. On this day, my gifts lie in witnessing beauty and perceiving harmony. Should I find an opportunity to share and teach Love, I will rest knowing that my purpose is fulfilled.”
