The First Step

Long term well being for myself and for all might be the only goal worth pursuing. Crazily, it seems to come from art, sports, workouts, music, colours, breathing, meditation, reading, writing, listening, psychedelics, reflecting and talking. For me and many.
Strife for flow, removing one by one every distracting, limiting thought. Unhindered focus. Enabling via accepting and expanding on offers.
Saw some weird, honest, dark, needy, crazy, gutsy, raw, thoughtful, confident, nervous, dramatic, carefree performances.
The room had collaboration, spontaneity, clarity, warmth, acceptance, observance, appreciation and some wariness.
It was magical, energizing, homely, unusual and liberating.
Young boys, men. Some unsure, some feel deeply unappreciated and some feel like geniuses.
Writers, actors, storytellers, with a spark.
Hopeful. Scrappy.
I saw courage.
I saw judgement.
I saw envy and awe.
Desperation and love.
Mistakes and attitudes.
Multiply talented. I saw self-doubt.

I met expression. I met the community.
Chaos, persistence, bonding. Perspectives, order, silence, surprises, joy, shyness and status.
I saw the potential. I saw The First Step.
