For most (if not all) of my life, being a leader was a part of myself that I tried to suppress. And not that I could ever be a follower, but I had no desire to accept a truth that would further set me aside from the “crowd”. I always knew that I stood out, and yet it felt like a burden to. I couldn’t see the good that existed in not “fitting in” while simultaneously living in a world… a society that demands that of you. So, no, I didn’t want to fully embrace it, let alone honor it as a vital part of myself.
But when you have been chosen to lead in the life you live, the calls for you to rise to the occasion will never stop. In fact, they will only get louder and more frequent to the point where it becomes undeniable. The most high will make it impossible for you to live a life that rejects any aspect of your being. You’ll find yourself in spaces that will require those parts of you…Psh, I can’t even count the number of times this has happened to me…. And I know there will be many more.
Nonetheless, yes, I am seeing… most importantly, I am choosing to be a leader at this point in my life. I had no choice but to answer the call , if I truly wanted the ringing to cease.
