Have you ever been asked the same question by two different people, one that sat not quiet right, and one that felt easy?
Today I want to introduce you to Adbel a human that loves sharing life with others, one that treats friendship like the souvenir of all the places we go and the experiences we have
We chat about what it means to be someone who seeks out the interjections that connect us, what it looks like to not forget yourself in showing up for others, and why defining ourselves by a title misses so much of who we really are
He shares how he’s learned how capable her is, how fear of what might be or what ought be lost isn’t something he worries about, but the reality that relationships are at a time, only for a time has been a harder thing to face at times
We chat about how question like “where are you from” and comments like “your different” miss so much of the value of culture and differences, how growing up in a country that saw his background as one to be hesitant of, how it isn’t just the question but rather the motivation behind it, and how it is his responsibility to live his own life first and foremost
Abdel is a human who if you are lucky enough to bump into in a line in a foreign country, strike up a conversation, and share a day together, he is one who will remain in your life as a friend you can learn from, be inspired by, know your in a safe space to feel and be heard, and remember what it is to be open and real about how life can be, both good and hard
So tune in today and meet Abdel, a human with a genuine, joy filled passion for being just that, human
And to you Abdel thank you, thank you for being a sweet sincere soul, for being the kind that vales connection, of the way you so genuinely share life, your home, and treated me as if I was in my own in yours. You are a reminder of why it is always so worth saying hi.
