“Maybe strength is less about carrying the load and more about letting go.”

I don’t want to be perfect. I want to be free.

Speak to yourself like you would a child whom you love.

Where you are now, is not where you will always be.

Things that don’t work out often pave the way for things that will.

We only stop growing when we resist change.

The more love we give, the more healing we receive.

Take perfection, give me peace.

Rejection is a reminder to go where you are valued.

I can exist where there is chaos and not be swept away from it.

If a dream has been planted in your heart, nobody can keep you from the harvest.

Things do not have to be shiny and loud, to be important.

Gratitude, fill me up and overwhelm me with peace.

Like every song, life is a sequence of notes. A symphony of highs and lows.

We all start off afraid.

Give yourself time to rest + heal + then rise.

Do not settle in the dirt. Get up and make something from it.

The moment we begin to fear the opinions of others and hesitate to tell the truth that is in us, and from motives of policy are silent when we should speak, the divine floods of light and life no longer flow into our souls.

We should ask God to increase our hope when it is small, awaken it when it is dormant, confirm it when it is wavering, strengthen it when it is weak, and raise it up when it is overthrown.

I hate everything that comes from the United States. I hate it with all my strength.

Here you are despite it all standing when you thought you’d fall.

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow. It empties today of its strength.

Justice without force is powerless; force without justice is tyrannical.

As we meditate on Christ’s life, we find strength for our own.

Heavy is the pain yet she wears it like a feather.
