cleanse you.”
Nayyirah Waheed

“Ask your mother to tell you how much she loves you. Listen carefully to the truth in her voice.”
Key Ballah, Preparing My Daughter For Rain

Joanna Macy
“The biggest gift you can give is to be absolutely present, and when you're worrying about whether you're hopeful or hopeless or pessimistic or optimistic, who cares? The main thing is that you're showing up, that you're here and that you're finding ever more capacity to love this world because it will not be healed without that. That was what is going to unleash our intelligence and our ingenuity and our solidarity for the healing of our world.”
Joanna Macy

“Touch all of your scars and remember their birthdays, remind yourself how far you’ve come.”
Key Ballah, Preparing My Daughter For Rain

Olga Tokarczuk
“Standing there on the embankment, staring into the current, I realized that—in spite of all the risks involved—a thing in motion will always be better than a thing at rest; that change will always be a nobler thing than permanence; that that which is static will degenerate and decay, turn to ash, while that which is in motion is able to last for all eternity.”
Olga Tokarczuk, Flights
