VELVETEEN-REAL PEOPLE

What if I told you that what the world needs right now is you – flawed, fumbling, wounded, trying-to-figure-it-all-out you?Because that’s exactly what it needs, you know- more velveteen-real people who are a little worn and a little weary, but who bring a whole lot of warm and welcoming and wonderful to life.

Quote L.R. Knost

REFLECTION:

  • How willing are you to show others “a little worn and little weary” you?
  • What would a more  VELVETEEN REAL you look like?
  • What if being “real”  is your best warm, welcoming and wonderful self? 
  • The world needs YOU right now… so be REAL!
