When you have experienced a connection with someone who is larger than life, it changes you.
Have you had this experience?
The person can be a celebrity or someone you were emotionally close with. Someone who, in spite of their larger than life presence, makes time for you, is gracious with undivided attentiveness.
When you experience this interaction, it will often inspire you to be like them, to be gracious, to be kind. To be kind even in the face of rudeness when you have every reason to be angry, to lash out.
It exudes it's own brand of calm, cool, collected charisma.
Having known or briefly experienced that sort of presence only a few times in my brief runs around the tree, it was enough. It changed me in ways that words can only half capture, though, I'm trying!
What does it feel like to be in the presence of angels souls
With just enough earthbound influence to know they are mortal
One who has surpassed their wildest imagining of life goals
Feeling they can pass through the sting of deaths portal
Knowing they didn't ring the bell
These magnificent people who have mostly conquered living
These super human beings who have little more than a clue
Of their greatness in life with all that they do by just giving
Humility of spirit unaware that their presence is changing you
Greatness in motion
