60 Seconds for Thoughts on Thursday: I’m Here Because You’re There!

Hello to you, Kimberly, listening in the middle of the Florida Peninsula!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Thoughts on Thursday and your host, Diane Wyzga

Maybe like me you are working diligently at your craft, sending your work out into the world with the hope that it gets to where it’s going like a river moving under frozen ice. But you’re never quite sure where it’s landing, who it’s helping, what difference it’s making to the world.

One morning you get an email with “Good Morning and Thank You” in the Subject box. It’s a note from a woman who listens to the podcast every morning as she heads out for a walk. Imagine that!

She says that one of my 60 Seconds episodes spoke to her “as if you had heard me.”  Imagine that!

Then she shares a bit more about herself, her challenges, and some uncertainties before asking how to stay steadfast in a daily creative practice.

Once I wiped the tears from my eyes I posted a reply.

I can share this much: I’m here because you’re there. I believe that those of us who endeavor to help the world through our creative work slip and slide in our steadfastness. What steadies us, grounds us, gives us the courage to keep on going is someone who takes the time to say, “Thank you so much for doing that!!!!!”

Question: What keeps you steadfast in your daily creative pursuits?
