“I want to be in the arena. I want to be brave with my life. And when we make the choice to dare greatly, we sign up to get our asses kicked. We can choose courage or we can choose comfort, but we can’t have both. Not at the same time. Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome. Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage.”
― Brené Brown, Rising Strong
When Herbie Hancock played a solo of "So What" with Miles Davis, he played the "wrong chord". Herbie says, "since [Miles] didn't hear it as a mistake, he felt it was his responsibility to find something that fit, that taught me a big lesson, not only about music but about life".
Charles Einstein in his essay, "In Rhino, Everything" says, "unforced kindness and generosity have the power to puncture the story of separation", "compassion illuminates new strategies" and "Even as the crises of the world each contain the others in an unholy matrix, the same is true for responses. To respond to any is to respond to all."
That's were my head is today. Joining the arena.
