Not everyone
will understand
your journey
That's fine
It's not their journey
to make sense of.
It's yours

Start where you are
Use what you have

Many people QUIT digging right before they are about to hit GOLD.
Don't be one of those people. When times get tough, when you start to question yourself, your life, your dreams, just KEEP GOING. This feeling of uncertainty is vital for you to experience, it is part of your necessary growth. It is a character test sent to see if you are serious about your chosen path, not an excuse to become a quitter. Dreams don't work unless YOU do. -Freelee
If we are not willing to confront the truth about ourselves that a loss unearths, we squander a rare and precious opportunity for transformation. Our grief, while deeply felt, runs the risk of becoming a sentimental escape from the most meaningful part of our journey. If we do the hard work when we lose someone we love, then we find ourselves BLESSED with more love than we ever knew existed.
from "Broken Open" by Elizabeth Lesser
we must be
willing to let go
of the life we
have planned
so as to have
the life that is
waiting for us
-Joseph Campbell
