“Facing the darkness, admitting the pain, allowing the pain to be pain, is never easy. This is why courage - big-heartedness - is the most essential virtue on the spiritual journey.

We will become pain's victims instead of the healers we might become.”

Even though you are hurt and you may be feeling down — stop kicking yourself! Face what has happened. Make the decision to start over again.”
