that isn't quite right...
how about this: Give the people what you want to give. Give them the things that make you feel alive. Give them your poetry, your heart. Give what you can part with, and give just a little more. But don't give away yourself, and don't give into the need to sell and sell. I'm not doing a lot of things I could be doing, and I'm working on being okay with that. I am working on not needing to figure out what others want from me so I can give it and gain their approval. What I want to do instead, is find what I can give, and give it. Here's what I have right now: I have this thing I do, where I find a story for you. You tell me what you are needing, what feels wrong, or where you are lost. Or you tell me your joy, the excitement you have about something new or old or beautiful. You tell me a little or a lot. And I find you a story. Just for you. When was the last time someone picked you out a story, a story that might have a key in it, or a treasure, or might just have the words you want to hear? And then we figure out why and how this is your story, and what happens next. Together. It takes some trust, some willingness to step into that story. It's what I have to give. Right now, I have stories waiting for the right people. And I have you -- you are waiting, some of you, for the right story. If this sounds like something you want to receive, to give to yourself, you can go here and sign up. I want to give this. Give what you want to give, and let the people who will receive it, do so.
