“This pain will not serve me, it’s okay to let it go.”

The refusal to change isn’t your invitation to stop.

Be a gentle heart in a world of aggression.

There is nothing more beautiful than the love you hold for others.

I refuse to apologize for my feminity.

When people are cruel, we can join them in their poison or find freedom in love.

There is nothing more extravagant than a generous heart.

I’m terrified to step into my worth, for it just may change my life.

A decision should be made because it aligns with your soul. Not culture.

The moon, our mother. The stars, her children.

I didn’t lose. I won a new beginning.

We will grieve and we will rise.

Be not attached to who you think you are. So you can believe all that you are meant to be.

Being kind doesn’t mean you are a pushover. Don’t let them convince you otherwise.

You don’t have to be someone else to be loved.

You are a child of the moon darling born from light.

It’s okay to not have it all figured out. If someone does have all the answers, that’s when I should be worried.

Hope rises and dreams flicker and die. Love plans for tomorrow and loneliness thinks of yesterday. Life is beautiful and living is pain.

I don’t want your polite lies, give me the painful truth.

I know when you ache because I’ve been deep inside every part of you.

Pain results from a judgment you have made about a thing. Remove the judgment and the pain disappears.

In every heart there is an inner room, where we can hold our greatest treasures and our deepest pain.

It takes courage…to endure the sharp pains of self discovery rather than choose to take the dull pain of unconsciousness that would last the rest of our lives.

Be surprised by joy, be surprised by the little flower that shows its beauty in the midst of a barren desert, and be surprised by the immense healing power that keeps bursting forth like springs of fresh water from the depth of our pain.

Think of everything you’ve ever experienced that was painful; that’s the meaning of Good Friday. Think of all the ways that love ultimately healed your heart; that’s the meaning of Easter.
