Fully Present – v2

Morrie was right,
Julie knows –
We need to be fully present.
Intense, feeling

Letting raw emotion come,
Being fully honest
Not holding back
Being vulnerable, truly

Making eye contact
Active listening, hearing
Open and vulnerable
Sharing and risk taking

See things clearly
Speak out fully
Being frank and demanding
In being fully present
