Quote by Glennon Doyle

“[...] I began allowing my feelings to disturb me. This was scary, because I had always assumed my feelings were so big and powerful that they would stay forever and eventually kill me. But my hard feelings did not stay forever, and they did not kill me. Instead they came andwent, and afterward I was left with something I didn't have before. That something was self-knowledge.”

“This year has taught me the simple craft of belief. I believe in the things I’ve nurtured and built this year. Slowly but carefully.

The resolution to breathe, to meditate, to not harm my mind or body even when I’ve felt like it.”
