Focusing on the individual reveals the world

Focusing on the individual reveals the world

Holding a space for someone does show that they matter because EVERYONE matters...

• ...that person who cut you off in traffic today


• ...your annoying neighbor who lives behind you


• ...that nice, but lonely looking elderly lady whom you see every week at the supermarket but haven't yet brought yourself to talk to her


• ....and most importantly, your family.

CHALLENGE:  Today, focus on 'seeing' people for who they are; then, find some way to help a complete stranger feel 'noticed,' and most importantly, LOVED!

Then share your experiences and challenge others to share how it feels to 'notice' others. ❤️
