Day 2…we all came back.
Unveiled a commitment to build a culture of reading, witnessed my Superintendent scooter it up, visited by one heck of a guy, laughed together with our new principal. (dang I list lots of things).
But one thing happened that keeps knocking on my brain.
During the start of our as our keynote speaker shared his story out of the corner of my eye, I saw someone who had been missing from our community for a bit and is going through somethings. This person stood there in the doorway and watched from afar. Thinking nothing of it until I witnessed 8 folks stand up to greet him. One after the other they hugged him. And these were the types of hugs that talked…
I felt like I shouldn’t be watching as if I was intruding on an intimacy of which I was not a part but I couldn’t stop.
Big moments are needed and planned and celebrated but those small moments like that which will always change how I see the world.
