How grateful I am, not only to have known love, but to have known just how important it is. To pay attention to it.

Sometimes we lose more from fear itself than the thing we are afraid of.

Everything you’re sure is right can be wrong in another place. - Barbara Kingsolver

A lot can be extracted from less.

My outward shape is a result of my physical injuries over the years, and my inward shape is a result of the emotional breaks, the early heartbreaks and more recent deaths.

Find the courage to love with vulnerability again.
