When our team
have something they want to do
and we tell them
not to do it,
we may feel satisfied
seeing them
stop.

…
What we may not realize
is that they may be doing it
behind our back.

I thought I wanted
to sing.

What I really wanted
was permission
to feel.

I thought I wanted
to act.

What I really wanted
was permission
to be real.

I thought I wanted
to make furniture.

What I really wanted
was permission
to play.

If resentment says
“I will have
the last laugh.”

Regret may say
“I wish I could have
laughed about it
then.”

Realizing empathy
often helps us see
that what we judged
as selfish
can be mutually beneficial
and what we judged
as altruistic
can be hurtful.

Recovery
is what fuels growth
not
hard work.

Hard work
is necessary
but insufficient.
