I want to change the world.
Always have.
In fact, probably even more than I ever remember dreaming about being a mom.
And THEN (this is what this piece should be called, And THEN)…
And THEN, I experienced deep love for a little human with both a big soul and big purpose, and realized that changing the world happens, as Mama Theresa said, by going home and loving your family.
Today, I still want to change the world with the work I do, but not any more than I want to help Nolan change the lead in his mechanical pencil, change work or personal plans so I can attend a field trip, or help him navigate change which has come in many ways in the last handful of years…moving countries, maneuvering grief and confusion around the unexpected deaths of his 22-year-old uncle and 57-year-old Gigi and changing schools a few times, to name a few.
I want to make the movement of vulnerability, authentic expression and personal responsibility for women, with and without children, SWELL (feel into that "And THEN" energy ~> we are ALL the mothers of our own reinvention), but, not any more than I want to make Nolan pancakes, even when the time on the clock says there's not enough of it, as it did today.
And that's exactly it. There is always time.
It's a finite commodity as far as the length of your life goes, however, within that life, time expands to match the depth, width and height of your passion and devotion.
Commit yourself to what's most vital in this world, leave the rest, and always follow what makes your heart go pitter patter.
You'll find yourself telling stories that almost always start, continue or end with, And THEN…!
