Quote by L.R. Knost
Breathe in the amazing, hold on through the awful, relax and exhale during the ordinary. That's just living a heart-breaking, soul-healing, amazing, awful, ordinary life. And it's beautiful.
The Guest House
Poem by Rumi
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Dealing with Grief or Anger
I think of this quote often when I'm feeling grief or anger. This quote reminds me that on the other side of these feelings is wisdom and compassion - IF I have the courage to turn towards and not away.
“Don't turn away. Keep your gaze on the bandaged place. That's where the light enters you.”
