A Life of Wonder

Of all the super powers available to us, perhaps the most potent and important is our ability to question the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves. Stories that we use to describe who we are. Stories that give us meaning and dimension, while at times confining us to the limits of who we understand ourselves to be. Those we love support us in this. They remind us of who we are and cultivate our essence. And in so doing, they reinforce who they believe us to be.

I’d like to challenge my understanding of these stories and emerge with fresh perspectives. By seeing ourselves differently, we’ll see the world differently, as well how we understand our place within it. What stories about yourself have you outgrown? Which assumptions about who you are should you challenge? If you figure this out, let me know; i’ll be working on it, too.–
