Grey haired person on a bus
12 years ago, on a bus, looking at the grey hairs of a lady seated in front of me, I decided to start a podcast.
I remember the moment clearly: I was lost in the depth of someone's grey hair - I thought it was the the most beautiful thing in the world to have the gift of grey hair:
What life lessons were stored in there?
What wisdom is itching to come out?
What depth is so familiar to her that others are wanting?
Who is the person under that head of hair in their fullest expression?
The possibility of exploring the depth within each of us, us ordinary folk, struck me out of nowhere. Did I know that it was a podcast that was going to be born? No. But I filed that memory away in a precious place and here she is today: the birth story of my podcast where we all get to share the gifts within.
And with that, here's this week's reflection question: At what point does a fleeting thought turn into a life-changing realization?
I hope this reflection question finds you at a time where the grandness of the moment is in front of you. You are ready!
