“When I allow myself to feel all my feelings instead of numbing myself to them, they pass more quickly. I spent my entire life telling everyone I was "OK, damn it."

Letting yourself get angry gives you strength, energy and motivation.” GivingFeelsFeelingsMotivationEnergyForceSidesLonelinessAngrySurrenderDamnUncomfortableAllowingReach OutNumbingUncomfortable Feeling Author:Ashley Judd

“There is a difference between motivation and inspiration. Motivation is when you get hold of an idea and don't let go of it until you make it a reality. Inspiration is the reverse-when an idea gets hold of you and you feel compelled to let that impulse or energy carry you along.
