high note

michael jackson, in his film "this is it", asks a guitar player to hit & hold a high note & he quietly adds "this is your moment to shine. we'll be right there with you". ...here's to all of ours.

Very verklempt watching the film at that moment -- bowled over by that generosity of spirit -- no scarcity thinking or dualism, just love and awareness of how we each deserve to shine in this world. And I love how you shine, Rachel. So many high notes in thes posts.

We were given hands to applaud others, they were given hands to applaud us ... so there's enough celebration of our achievements to go around. Recognition of others leads to a nobler self.
