Quote by Brené Brown

“We will not be characters in our stories. Not villains, not victims, not even heros. We are authors of our lives. We write our own daring endings. We craft love from heartbreak, compassion from shame, grace from disappointment, courage from failure. Showing up is our power. Story is our way home. Truth is our song. We are the brave and broken hearted. We are rising strong.”
