[ Witness ]
There’s a line in the 2004 movie “Shall we dance”: “We need a witness to our lives. (In a marriage) you’re saying, ‘your life will not go unnoticed, because I will notice it. I will be your witness’ ”. The line is in answer to the question ‘why get married’, which is a whole other topic.
The concept of needing a witness also applies to our work life. There are hundreds or thousands of people doing similar work as you, and work life is so much better when your work is appreciated. When work is witnessed, it just feels good.
