Sunday Dinner: Becoming

~

“For me, becoming isn’t about arriving somewhere

or achieving a certain aim.

I see it instead as forward motion,

a means of evolving,

a way to reach continuously

toward a better self.

The journey doesn’t end.”

.

Michelle Obama

“She said the music made her wonder,

Does it alter us more to be heard, or to hear?”

.

Madeleine Thien

“You may live in the world as it is,

but you can still work to create the world

as it should be.”

.

Michelle Obama

“But in the midst of all that uncertainty

and lack of clarity, there lies a wild beauty.

A hope. Possibility.

The promise of something bigger than us

happening just beneath the surface

that we can’t see.”

.

Mandy Hale

“Over and over again we
become lost and un-lost
We become and un-become.
This is meant to be.
Without our knowing and
unknowing we would have no
splendid, epic stories to tell.”

“Or maybe they weren’t changing.

Maybe they were just now becoming

what they had always wanted to be.”

“My fears teach me courage.

My weaknesses coach me to strength.

My scars remind me

not to make the same mistakes.

I can become who I long to be

by loving who I am now.”

.

“We are all in the process of becoming.”

“Give focus

only to which you want to see expand,

anything else is nonsense.”
