Quote by Donna Goddard

“We should take every moment, every day, and every person as new and fresh whenever we are presented with them. That way, we won’t misjudge anyone or anything. We won’t miss opportunities. And nor will we carry the burden of accumulated judgements from the past.”

“There are people like Senhor José everywhere, who fill their time, or what they believe to be their spare time, by collecting stamps, coins, medals, vases, postcards, matchboxes, books, clocks, sport shirts, autographs, stones, clay figurines, empty beverage cans, little angels, cacti, opera programmes, lighters, pens, owls, music boxes, bottles, bonsai trees, paintings, mugs, pipes, glass obelisks, ceramic ducks, old toys, carnival masks, and they probably do so out of something that we might call metaphysical angst, perhaps because they cannot bear the idea of chaos being the one ruler of the universe, which is why, using their limited powers and with no divine help, they attempt to impose some order on the world, and for a short while they manage it, but only as long as they are there to defend their collection, because when the day comes when it must be dispersed, and that day always comes, either with their death or when the collector grows weary, everything goes back to its beginnings, everything returns to chaos.”

“We can push a part of ourselves onto another person because we don’t feel comfortable with it. People do that all the time. They don’t know what to do with some aspect of themselves, so they put it in another person and then end up fighting with the person. They are fighting with themselves.”

“Feelings are physiological messages, aka interoception--very simply, messages from your brain tracking your body's physical and emotional state. With this feedback on how I was doing, I got better at taking care of myself. And I felt less like I had to control things, because I didn't have to anticipate everything: I could just notice things as they happened.”

“Feelings are just your body talking to you about how you're doing in the moment. Even if you've gotten used to ignoring them, they're still talking to you. Tune in to your breathing, and then your body, and then your emotions. It's a little thing that pays off big.”

“- Saying you need more time - Asking for help when you're overwhelmed by a "simple" task - Taking a break to process strong feelings - Asking not to be rushed... These are just emotional self-care skills you might not have been taught--or allowed--growing up. But you can teach yourself now if you want.”
