Share your story and watch what happens.
Share your story and watch what happens.
I love this saying because to me itās an invitation to believe in ourselves.
And I have to say, somewhat embarrisingyly, that itās taken me a while to fully believe in myself.
Why is that?
Donāt get me started.
Suffice it to say, there were obstacles along the road which pushed me in this and that direction and I swerved off track.
The Right Now Project is about creating a space where people can come, without judgement, to share their story in all of its incredibleness and not so greatness.
Itās about creating a platform where all of us can come and learn about how others are moving through the struggles of their lives with all of the ups and downs that go along with it.
It helps me, believe it or not, that I can hear about you and see how youāre moving along your healing journey. I never realized someone could endure the things youāve endured. And Wo, youāre able to do that, too?!
To you it might not mean anything. To you, thatās simply the way youāve lived your life.
To me, however, I find inspiration in how frigginā strong and powerful and perseverant you are.
I also like to know that Iām not alone. That Iām not the only one who is so overwhelmed with everything going on in the world. How challenging it can be sometimes just to tick off the one or two boxes of my daily to-do list.
We need each other.
And we especially need each other to heal. Even just to take that first step along the/our healing journey.
And for me it begins with knowing that youāre perfect, just the frigginā way you are.
So picture yourself walking up to a door. You knock. I answer and I say:
āJoeā or āAndreaā (Whatever youāre name is!). āAwesome. Come on in.ā
And you wonder if youāre in the right place and you say, āIs this The Right Now Project?ā
And I shake my head yes and say, āYep. Thank you so much for coming tonight. And one thing: Before you come in I just want you to know that youāre perfect just like this. You donāt have to be or do anything other that who or what you are.ā
You say, āShould I take off my shoes?ā
āNope. On is perfect,ā I say.
āWhat about this spaghetti stain on my shirt? Should I wipe that off first, maybe?ā
āPerfect. Your frigginā perfect. I love spaghetti.ā
You smile and then you step inside.
