Showing up is the best way to put actively participating in your life. I’m just learning how to show up for myself so I can be a little more mindful of showing up for others – thank you my friend.

I’m pretty damn sure we are living parallel lives. Weird and cool and I’m so glad to read you!

You, I read this and thought “Damn, I need to go see my mom … and attend some of my friends’ events … and just be altogether more present.” There are SO many things going on in life that we humans have an odd habit of allowing them to take precedent over what really matter.

Thanks, Kelly, for kicking me in the ass and reminding me of this. I’m on a mission to be more loving and available to the people that matter in my life (and demand that folks are there for me as well!).

As always, Kelly, an amazing post…and great comments that clearly have people thinking/being/showing up!

Here’s my take: if I believe (and I do) that love shows up then I don’t have to make it happen. I can trust that when I am showing up, what I want/deserve will, as well. I’m done working so hard, trying so hard, manipulating, cajoling, seducing (though the last one still has its benefits in the right context). Love shows up. Love is showing up. Love will show up.

And I will show up – 100% me – and then watch with amazement what happens. Not a perfect formula. There’s still that whole “human element” thing, but a better stance than my oh-so-familiar pattern of “This Is NOT Working, But I’ll Try Really Really Hard To Fix It Even Though I Can’t Fix It and It Is Not My Job To Fix It But Damn I Wish I Could Fix It, and You.” I’m with you. I’m showing up for you…just as you continue to show up for me.

Love that!

Good for you for carrying on when who you thought sould or could or needed to be there was not and better for you for keeping your eyes and heart wide open to receive those who did.
