OK – Good Looks Aside…
Because I am a relationships coach, I had to liken this situation of Obama’s cabinet appointments Monday to a matter near and dear to my heart. The issue is trust. So often women are afraid to trust men. We may give lip service to the idea of trust, but when it comes right down to it, in our heart of hearts, we are leery of trusting men.
We prove it every day. We say we trust him, yet micro manage his choices and actions. We believe that we have entrusted him with our very lives, but we question his choices, renege on supporting his choices (if we don’t like them) and scrutinize his every move. Shameful.
Barack Obama has run the most intelligent campaign ever. He not only defeated the Clinton machine, but he raised the most money, rallied the most diversity, and seemed to reinvigorate the entire planet! Yes? He did it from a centered, calm, resolute space of spirit. He did not need to resort to cyber violence or force. He accomplished his mission because he has the mental and spiritual fortitude to lead. Isn’t it time that we trust him?
