We All Need Allies, and We All Need to be an Ally

Watching this video caused me to reflect on my work and life.

Some days I’ve been, (and might still be at times) the dolphin, needing someone to help me to breathe again, and some days I’ve been (and will still need to be) the person pulling another back to safety, acceptance, or whatever the water might represent for them at the time.

For me, it was another reminder of the interconnectedness of us all, and that I am who I am because of others.

What do you think?
