“Pain is a huge gift. It can expand you like nothing else. If you can embrace it and sink into it, you'll get to the point where you can bend and transform your experience of it. Having some sort of creative outlet to do that is another gift.” IfsPainCreativeHugeEmbraceOutletsCreative Outlets Author:Rachael Yamagata
“There's something about [pain] that excites me. If I'm feeling really awful about something, it's because I haven't experienced it before. There's something I need to learn from it.” IfsNeedsFeelingsPainHavensAwful Author:Rachael Yamagata
“As I grow older, what I find interesting is that I get experience with pain, different types of pain, and I start to see the lovely hilarity of life. Things that were once so crushing take on a different essence. I move through it at a faster rate. It's like traveling: it opens my eyes. My process is to allow myself to have it and to not judge myself or the situation too much, and then to create something with it.” DifferentEyePainMovingGrowsProcessInterestingSituationToo MuchJudgingTypeEssenceRateLovelyFasterCrushHilarity Author:Rachael Yamagata
