Finding “The Greatest Love of All” – Thank You, Whitney!
When someone who has had a profound impact on our lives suddenly leaves us, it strikes a chord. I, as many of you, am deeply saddened by the news of Whitney Houston’s death.
Maybe it’s because I remember seeing her very first video as a MTV world premier back in the 80’s, knowing I was hearing the beginning of something (and someone) very special. Or maybe it’s the uplifting, positive music she sang that inspired me as a teenager and young adult (“Greatest Love of All,” “I’m Every Woman,” etc.). And maybe it’s because our children are about the same age. Of course it could be a combination of these things that give me pause to remember her great talent and be reminded that we all (including you and me) have a special gift to share with the world. Our job is simply to share it…before it’s too late.
But so often we get in our own way, don’t we? Today, I invite you to take a moment, reflect on your special gift, and think of one thing you can do to get it out into the world TODAY. It doesn’t have to be a huge step. For some great ideas on HOW to do just that, check out these articles:
Enjoy some of my favorite songs by Ms. Houston that so eloquently highlight the same positive messages I often tell my self (and my clients). Thank you, Ms. Houston. Your legacy of inspiration and hope lives on…
