To all the beautiful people 🌞
Words placed in a particular order can have a profound effect on us.
Words can bring us a moment of comfort, give us a different perspective, or change the course of our thinking and outlook entirely.
I would like this to be a space where we share quotes that have meaning to us or that have the potential to bring some comfort or encouragement to somebody, even if just for the moment in which they are reading it.
I will start.
Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow." - Mary Anne Radmacher
Go gently with yourselves lovely people.

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself as an afterthought. Eat the delicious food. Walk in the sunshine. Jump in the ocean. Say the truth that you're carrying in your heart like hidden treasure. Be silly. Be kind. Be weird. There's no time for anything else.

Hello everyone.

Chin up, you can’t see the beauty of the world if you’re looking at your feet. You got this
- Me, to myself, everyday.
Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious.

I
know
this transformation
is painful,
but you're not falling apart;
you're just falling into something
different,
with a new capacity
to be beautiful.

Forget what's safe or shallow. Go after bone deep, full blooded adventure with those who can meet you where your flame is here and elsewhere, body and mind. Become a force of life by knowing what you want and won't accept. Be sure to guard your time.
