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?

While I was at my brother Darrell’s life celebration in NY, there was a windstorm in Maryland. I received a text from my neighbor that they were calling the police
I don’t know exactly when I realized that I was scheduled to work the same day Audrey and I were to fly to Orlando, Fl for National Club Swimming Association (NCSA) Age Group Championships.
As I prepared for my brother’s life celebration, I found out that I had no way to prepare for what I experienced. I already have the utmost admiration for my brother, still, over the course of one afternoon at West Point…
I am certain I did not understand the full significance of what he wrote then nor do I now, but I knew enough to hold onto his letters.
I tend not to be awestruck, but my older brother, Darrell, is an exception. He is my superhero.
Being mothered is a universal experience. It is a life long process.
I am grateful for all those who have touched my life and continue to invest in me in this way. God is intentional.. It is out of the abundance of His love through others that compels me.
