“Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.” ― Martin Luther King

composting ourselves

Post | Feed | LinkedIn
I can’t think of a better metaphor for life; that even as we switch jobs, switch partners, move to new cities, move into new chapters of our life, that we are constantly composting ourselves, composting our experiences, and making room for new opportunities to grow. We walk away from toxic jobs and partners. We slowly back away from the friends who put us down more than they build us up. All the while, learning as we go. Falling down. Standing back up. Continuing to grow.

In the midst of heartbreak and trauma, humans have this incredible capacity to compose musical masterpieces, write the next best selling book, create powerful art, build businesses, and start a new sprint.
