The virtue of receptivity
Today was a faculty retreat for CRWU’s nursing school where we opened up with two conversations about gratitude and serendipity. People noticed the parallels … things we value that we can’t control. Things we have thanks to others.
These are the conversations that create the kind of receptivity that allows us to take in the abundance that is the nature of this universe. The power of these conversations is that they’re ones that people are unprepared for, that people can’t easily use as an opportunity to give away their power. They are rooted in two observations: we often get good things we don’t earn, and some of the best things in life happen unplanned. The message: be receptive.
