Hidden Potential
/ Autumn McKenzie JacksonOverlooked
Things of value are hidden in plain sight. Why can’t we see them?
I had the pleasure of visiting the city of Greenville, South Carolina. Falls Park in the Reddy is an amazing park and trails with a waterfall in the midst of downtown. I slowed down to have a conversation with a couple from Greenville, SC. I expressed admiration for this lovely park and they shared a story! I loved the story! You know I am going to find a way to create a parallel to life!
What do you want?
Sometimes we can’t see what is right in front of us. There are so many things hidden in plain sight. I will put a spin on the law of attraction. The law of attraction talk about “like attracting like.” I see it a little differently. When you value something- your eyes are unveiled to the things you value hidden in plain sight! Ever notice that once you have bought something new- all of a sudden everyone and their mom has it too?
The problem is- most people do not know what they want and their values. What do you want?

It has taken me years to express the sentiment found in this post. God has been working on my heart. There was a lot of shame and blame mixed in with my raw emotions that I needed to process.
The possibilities are endless. She is learning to hear from God. She knows that He has a plan and a purpose for her life. She has persevered through many things and her story of overcoming with help others.
Tory Palecek is my best friend from college. I met Tory the first day of volleyball preseason freshman year at Colgate University. We were both incoming freshmen. She immediately made an impression on me.
I am learning to thrive in increasingly complex situations.
