How we walk with the Broken speaks louder than how we sit with the Great |
Angela
Buttimer says, “Great leaders, healers, and sages have demonstrated this
truth for centuries. People with this ability have emotional substance,
compassion, and character. They are driven by
something within that is other-oriented (rather than self-obsessed). It's easy
and fun to hang with people when they are on top of their game. Are you able to
be there for them when they hit a wall, when they make a misstep, when they dip
into the valley? And who will be there for you when you come undone? Too often
people invest in others who are unable or unwilling to be there in any
meaningful way. Invest in healthy, supportive, and reciprocal relationships.
And be the presence others can trust and lean into during difficulties.
