Sarah Kay, you've inspired me. To do what, I'm not sure.
It just so happens we share the same name, so when she performed this part of her poem,
I was hooked.
"My parents named me Sarah, which is a biblical name. In the original story God told Sarah she could do something impossible and she laughed, because the first Sarah, she didn't know what to do with impossible. And me? Well, neither do I, but I see the impossible every day. Impossible is trying to connect in this world, trying to hold onto others while things are blowing up around you, knowing that while you're speaking, they aren't just waiting for their turn to talk -- they hear you. They feel exactly what you feel at the same time that you feel it. It's what I strive for every time I open my mouth --that impossible connection."
Her passion for life is invigorating.
How could I not pass it on.
What inspires you?
I love this! Thanks for sharing!
