There’s something about being an artist or a choreographer that’s akin being a writer. It’s the experience of doing the work and the learning that comes from it. A person gets to understand how parts together work differently than they do alone. It’s learning that the spaces and the empty bits add importance to the message.

There’s something about being a person that’s akin to being all of them. It’s the experience of learning that being with people is different than being alone. It’s learning that the spaces when we remove ourselves can add vibrancy and color to the times when we return.

This time of year many folks see the trees filled with color and don’t bother to see the leaves. Some folks see the leaves and never look at the trees they fall from.

To feel whole, we really need both to use our whole mind, to see the whole picture, to get the full meaning.

Spend time in the company of trees as well as walking through the forest.

How do make sure you’re putting all of the meaning in and getting all of the meaning out of what you’re doing?
