"So much of what I do is just making space." THIS. And in making this space, you're inviting others to find and rest within it. Maybe even entertain their own spaciousness, if it feels safe and accessible. But to know that even if not, there is enough room for them to rest; to breath and expand. What a gift this is!!
This made me think of Winnie Sung's research on the notion of bu ren (不忍,) in the Mencius, which loosely translates as "cannot bear to harm (others)." Highly rec!
