11.12 The Social Fabric Project (wk2) Seeing Others as a Powerfully Creative Act - a podcast by George Stull

Seeing someone well is a powerfully creative act. No one can fully appreciate their own beauty and strengths unless those things are mirrored back to them. There is something in being seen that brings forth growth. If you beam the light of your attention on me, I blossom. 
If you see great potential in me, I will probably come to see great potential in myself. If you can understand my frailties and sympathize with me when life treats me harshly, then I am more likely to have the strength to weather the storms of life. In how you see me, I will learn to see myself.
