My Only Job

I have to remind myself that showing up is ENOUGH.
Waking up every day and moving in the direction of helping others is ENOUGH.
Choosing to spend most of my time healing, consulting, and educating others is ENOUGH.
It doesn’t need to be louder.
It doesn’t need to be bigger.
I have to remind myself that if I show up with my focus on others,
Ready and willing to do the work necessary,

Even though

ESPECIALLY
when the work isn’t shiny,
the work isn’t applauded,
the work isn’t revered.

It will be enough
and so will I.
