your daily rock : put your clever down.

We are so hungry for real.

Real, authentic, you.

Not the smart you, or the sarcastic or glib or cynical you, or the you who feels they need to keep up or impress us.

Just you. At your most ordinary.

Full of doubt and overeating. Full of not knowing and vulnerability. Full of ideas, unsure of how to make them happen.

That’s the you we want and need. The fully human one.

Put down your clever. Pick up your ordinary. Because at your ordinary, you’re at your most potent.

Love,
