You will see me at a party sitting
and talking to someone for one hour and as time goes by I still look at them
with genuine interest and caring-this is living in your purpose. It is
wonderful to be able to listen, coach, and help so many people throughout my
lifetime that is still just beginning.
Building a real empathy and caring
towards another and allowing them to feel comfortable in the shared space is a
significant part of the therapeutic relationship. When people do feel like
this, they will reveal things you can not imagine, things that make you wonder
how long they have been bottled up inside, things that make you concerned for
how this impacts themselves and others, how they feel when they go to sleep at
night and they are alone, and how they cope.
With the label of therapist, social
worker- people feel that they can confide in you because this is your
profession of course. Although, with the
people that come across my path, there are many that God wants me to meet,
help, and share my energy and heart with.
Or even little interaction with local people that make them smile or
make their day a bit happier- it is all worth my while.
