The Friday Feature w/Sean: What Holds You Up?
What holds you up? The Friday Feature – Week 273. Forty-one years ago, I stood on America’s Highest Suspension Bridge – Royal Gorge Bridge – with my parents and grandparents. I didn’t think about how it worked. I didn’t tie things together. I just crossed it.
But standing there again as an adult, it hit differently.
The bridge hangs nearly 1,000 feet above the Arkansas River, suspended by two massive cables. But those cables aren’t solid—they’re made of thousands of individual wires, twisted together to carry the weight. This time, I saw the message clearly.
✅ Our lives are held up the same way. Not by one thing—but by many individual pieces: faith, family, mentors, routines, experiences, conversations, prayers, and people who show up when it matters.
Alone, each piece may not seem enough. But together, they hold us steady.
What are the individual pieces holding you up?
And who are you helping to support?
Happy Father’s Day to my dad—and to the men who didn’t have to be dads, but showed up anyway. If you know, you know.
