David Whyte on work

Psychology
Philosophy
Poetry
Presence

Work gives us a sense of power over circumstance
The key human need is to know you show up in the world and you have influence
Like Lukey on the drums
We're loving presence brings out someone else's full expression
This expression includes work
This expression includes power over circumstance
To know them and their essences as it goes over waterfall or in the slow pool
The essence of water doesn't change but it's circumstance changes what aspect of its personality is highlighted
Work asks the question what am I going to do
How I'm I going to show up
Work can be a place to find yourself but you can also lose yourself
How will I help my autistic friends navigate these waters
