At the end of 2021, one of the support groups at the Epilepsy Foundation of Michigan shared a lovely moment together. One of the group members chose a song for each person, sharing one by one that this song encapsulates a wonderful part of who they are uniquely.
Yesterday, when we introduced our new staff member to this group, they shared about their lives and one by one, they said, “This is my song,” — each naming the song chosen for them.
We internalize the best things people share about us. (So we should share them).
