Jeanette Winterson
“...what he told himself on those sea-soaked nights...Others joined in and it was discovered that every light had a story-no, every light was a story. And the flashes themselves were the stories going out over the waves, as markers and guides and comfort and warning.”
― Jeanette Winterson, Lighthousekeeping

“When entering this journey, let go of all the ways you want these guides to be, and how you think they should be serving you. Whether you think they should be “making you rich,” making your life what you think it should be or saving you from what you think it should not be, they are actually here to open you to a much larger you. A larger you which is not reliant upon these ideas of how you think things should be and instead opens you to your true creative abilities.
Trust that this is the way, and that walking in this way does not remove you from any blessing that is waiting for you. But you are now choosing to lay down your ego that is demanding how it should happen.”
― Gwen Juvenal, "The Seed" Journal: A Space for Recording Your Soul Experiences and Expansive Journeys
