“A que los miedos convierten a los humanos en leyendas. Es imposible luchar contra una leyenda. Es imposible decirse a uno mismo que no debe tener miedo de algo si no lo comprende.”
― Elísabet Benavent, Cómo (no) escribí nuestra historia

“I’ll never be the size I was before I had kids, and I’m fine with that. My health isn’t a number on the scale or on a tag in my jeans. I feel good about my body because it gets me through this life. I want to be around as long as possible to see my kids grow up, so I take care of it. I can’t remember when I last felt like this.”
― Kennedy Ryan, Before I Let Go

“Grief is a grind. It is the work of breathing and waking and rising and moving through a world that feels emptier. A gaping hole has been torn into your existence, and everyone around you just walks right past it like it’s not even there.”
― Kennedy Ryan, Before I Let Go

“quote from Dr. Dan Siegel: “The best predictor of a child’s well-being is the parent’s self-understanding.” What this means is that when we understand why we are so reactive—what old patterns and wounds are being triggered for us—we can begin to heal and choose a different way of being, rather than repeating dysfunctional family patterns. We can have a chance to refrain from unwittingly passing this baggage onto our kids.”
