This week I am grateful for:

-able to follow my scheduling

-losing weight (progressively)

- watching my favourite youtube

-listening to audio books (so "reading" book)

...I thank the little things that made my week so happy. >_<

(I may use this exercise weekly 🤓)

The vulnerability of showing up

We live in a world where the busier you are, the more you are. We complain-brag about our back-to-back-to-back meetings and forgetting to eat. Multitasking makes us feel productive and efficient, even important. We’re on our phones during meetings and even meals with loved ones because there is “something” out there that needs our ever so valuable attention (or, whatever is at hand is just not interesting enough).

Today I was reminded of the value of simply showing up and being present. To give people your time of day and show that they are worth it. We can’t always be reaching out to people, planning events, etc., but we can choose to show up and be present at each opportunity. It reminded me of a part from Mari Andrew’s Am I There Yet? that I really liked:

Show up for work. Take charge of your responsibilities. Be honest. Ask questions. Work hard. Offer to help, offer to stay, but don’t let it keep you from doing other showing up for your loved ones.

These words really resonate with me. But it’s honestly really hard. How do you know if you’re showing up too much? Do they deserve to receive that from you? It’s a vulnerable thing to show up and to be present because you are telling the other that you value them enough to do so. Unfortunately enough, I’ve spent a lifetime making sure that I am never the one who cares the most in the room. It’s too much of a burden to bear; the potential disappointment only increases, and it never seems to be the “cool” thing to be... Also, when it comes to work, it can be hard to see where the line is between showing up to work and not letting that hinder you showing up for other things.

And even with the best of intentions, I don’t think my attention span is long enough anymore to really be present for anything. It’s funny how I think this ties into both my relationship with technology and my fear of vulnerability, which are both things I want to dig deeper into...

One of my favorite artists, Mari Andrew, is what I'm feeling lately. She's so good at trying to be real and vulnerable with emotions, and I have a lot to learn from her. Totally worth a follow on Instagram.

mari may be magic. every morning for 5 years, around time time I check this app. I wake up to a new post from her where she articulates something I’m feeling, have felt, or will feel. in honor of her #letitoutpod episode this week, here’s a random sample of the ones I had screenshotted on my phone in the last 6 months or so. the episode link is in my bio & I cried in the intro which I hope didn’t ruin the charm... #mariandrew #bymariandrew 〰️♥️ @bymariandrew 🎨 (at East Village, Manhattan) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvByAJfgWuN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1aded6d92rier
