“Whenever I read a poem that moves me, I know I'm not alone in the world. I feel a connection to the person who wrote it, knowing that he or she has gone through something similar to what I've experienced, or felt something like what I have felt. And their poem gives me hope and courage, because I know that they survived, that their life force was strong enough to turn experience into words and shape it into meaning and then bring it toward me to share.” KnowsWorldGivingFeelsPersonsEnoughMovingTurnsStrongForceFeltGoneKnowingShareShapesConnectionsGive MeSurvivedNot AloneStrong Enough Author:Gregory Orr
“If there's a feeling you have, other people have it. If there's something weird about your life, other people have lived it. If there's something kooky about your body, other people have that, too. We're not alone. There's some kind of tremendous relief in that and I think it can only be expressed in belly laughter. This tremendous relief that happens the millisecond we realize, it's not just me. That's what good laughter is about. It's about knowing that you're not alone.” PeopleIfsThinkingKindFeelingsBodyHappensRealizingKnowingLaughterYour BodyReliefBellyNot AloneGood Laugh Author:Brené Brown
