“i love like flowers and fire… i don't know any other way. soft and vulnerable, and wild and burning… with my heart broken. wide. open. and even though he came in like wildfire, he was just. broken. and hardened. and filled with an ugliness raging inside of him and he thought that if he raged hard enough against me that he could rage an ugliness out from inside of me too. then he could say, “see, it's you.” that he could be so hard to love that he could make me feel hard to love too. but i just softly left the room. a graceful exit. and i wrote all my feelings down to shed his hardened residue. and to remind myself of all the ways that there are such beautiful and tender things in me… always.”

“give them girlhood. in any way you can… give girls friendships. ways to find other girls in their world and to learn to dance with other wildflowers, and to build bonds that teach them the magic of girls and reflect back to them their own magic in themselves. and then, when they grow a little taller and their world gets a little bigger, if that world tries to tell them all about the unworthiness of a woman… they will know it's a lie. and if you haven't yet known girlhood, i hope you find it in some way now… find other ones in this world who help you see and feel the magic of other women. anything… from trading friendship bracelets to breathing life into each other's souls, just somewhere you'll be shown the magic in yourself. and so whenever this world tries to tell you all about the unworthiness of a woman… you'll know it's a lie.”

“The urgent task of proclaiming the Gospel in our time demands that believers, and priests in particular, ensure that everyone be able to encounterJesus Christ made flesh, made man, made history.We must always take care never to lose sight of the “flesh” of Jesus Christ: that flesh made of passions, emotions and feelings, words that challenge and console, hands that touch and heal, looks that liberate and encourage, flesh made of hospitality, forgiveness, indignation, courage, fearlessness; in a word, love.”
