I've been thinking a lot about superpowers. The ones you have, dear reader, and the ones I have. You know what they are - those things (or that thing) you do so well and without effort, which seems like a big deal to others but is just, well, the thing you do.
Those superpowers can be amazing - uplifting, productive, informative, comforting, rescuing, nourishing, building, examining, illuminating...except they can also have a shadow side - when the use of your superpower makes another person feel less than wonderful. I did that recently. I inadvertently went along tralala doing what I do and caused someone I love to feel something not positive at all.

Which got me thinking about the impact we have on each other in the world - this big, confusing world of superpowered humans and precious individuals, and the heaviness or lightness of our footsteps. I want to walk gently. And so you get a double-dose of quotes today!
I want to walk lightly, even joyfully, through whatever days I am given. I want to laugh easily. I want to step carefully in and out of people's lives and relationships. I don't want to tread any heavier than necessary. - Steve Goodier

You light-stepping big-loving super-powered human, I wish you a day of joyful walking and heaps of easy laughter. xo

Thanks for that wonderful quote. Sometimes we can overwhelm ourselves as others. Don't know if that makes sense! Determined young lady, pushing ahead with her horn. Maybe we have to take it off sometimes! Stay well and safe!
Carol! Yes! It makes sense....overwhelm is the perfect word there. And a removable unicorn horn would be the ideal situation!!! Stay safe and well where you are in the world, too!
