beside (not behind) every great man...

This is an appreciate post about Megumi.

*Deep breath.

Being present for someone going through a difficult process is not easy. When i humbly applauded Megumi for her patience, she simply replied, "it is what it is." Watching her stay in her center and find joy in her husband's healing has taught me SO much about what it means to love someone unconditionally. She is SOLID. i'm sure there are moments i don't see, moments when she is less than solid. However, it is not perfection i'm speaking of. It's her practice of noticing her own thoughts, intentions, and judgements. It's her ongoing building of compassion and connection with others.

Tonight, i learned that Megumi knows how to play the guitar. And quite well too! It was a nice side of her that i was so smitten to see. i'm so happy she was given the chance to play and perform.
