And then meaning finds us. Not in grand gestures and large-scale projects, but moment to moment when we are available and willing to stay present: to someone who needs to talk; in meetings when a heated atmosphere is cooled by our calm presence; in team sessions when we attend to how people are doing, not just what they do; in our families when we are more patient, more available; in processes where we create the conditions for thinking and reflection, refusing to leap into action before we have understood the problem.
