Open the door of possibility for someone else

There’s a particular kind of door we can’t open on our own. As powerful as we are individually, some parts of us only awaken in the presence of another. When someone sees you not as your past, your habits, or your story, but as possibility, you feel it. And you can offer that same gift to others by seeing them as an unwritten story, not as they’ve been. This is not about living without boundaries or denying reality—it’s about understanding that while repetitions of past behavior may be probable, choosing to relate to people as something more than their history, because we are all more than our history, can create the space for movement towards significant transformations.

Seeing others as a fresh start is a discipline. It takes courage to venture into the unknown, knowing you risk heartbreak and disappointment. It also takes forgiveness of others and ourselves, with no guarantee that change will happen. This feels risky, yet if someone sees our potential, we might. And if we see someone else’s, they might. And that might is enough, because it only takes one person believing something is possible for it to be possible.

The possibility of growth lives in being seen clearly and without agenda. Where is it time to let go of the past so you can see a possibility?
