“Do not hide your wounds – for even flowers
bloom within concrete fractures and damaged
fragments make up the most intricate mosaics.
Promise me that you will never conceal your
cracks, for I will only ever see them as places in
which to fill with love.”
― Bianca Sparacino, Seeds Planted in Concrete

“Because you have been hurt before, you fall in love with anyone who shows you their soul. You know how much courage that takes.”
― Bianca Sparacino, The Strength In Our Scars

“All of the love you have given to the wrong people— it will find its way back to you.”
― Bianca Sparacino, The Strength In Our Scars

“If you have a difficult relationship, and you want to make peace with the other person, you have to go home to yourself. Go home to your garden and cultivate the flowers of peace, compassion, understanding, and joy. Only after that can you come to your partner and be patient and compassionate.
When we commit to another person, we make a promise to grow together, sharing the fruit and progress of practice. It is our responsibility to take care of each other. Every time the other person does something in the direction of change and growth, we should show our appreciation.”
