#Healing

"To be rejected by someone doesn't mean you should also reject yourself or that you should think of yourself as a lesser person. It doesn't mean that nobody will ever love you anymore. Remember that only ONE person has rejected you at the moment, and it only hurt so much because to you, that person's opinion symbolized the opinion of the whole world, of God."

"A bridge of silver wings stretches from the dead ashes of an unforgiving nightmareto the jeweled vision of a life started anew."

"You can run away from yourself so often, and so much, just because the broken pieces of you cut your feet too deeply if you stay around for too long. But then what if someone were to come along and pick up those pieces for you? Then you wouldn't have to run away from yourself anymore. You could stop running. If someone sees you as something worth staying with— maybe you'll stay with yourself, too."

"We are not to be occupied with our feelings or symptoms,or our faith or lack of faith,but only with what God has said"

"Polarity exists so that we may discover the truth beyond this world of duality, which is the ultimate purpose of life."

"I make jokes because humor is the greatest healing factor that there is."

"Take Care of Yourself First- It’s Easier to Serve Others That Way."

"The emotion that can break your heart is sometimes the very one that heals it..."

"I believe in the healing power of the arts, and whenever anyone can bring art into anyone's life, it's a special thing."

"Kindness and a generous spirit go a long way. And a sense of humor. It's like medicine - very healing."

"There is a moment in our healing journey when our denial crumbles; we realize our experience and it's continued effects on us won't "just go away". That's our breakthrough moment. It's the sun coming out to warm the seeds of hope so they can grow our personal garden of empowerment."

"Everything hurts right now and nothing is helping because as the pain is getting worse — so is the love."

"'Healing,' Papa would tell me, 'is not a science, but the intuitive art of wooing nature.'"

"Does our purpose on Earth directly link to the people whom we end up meeting? Are our relationships and experiences actually the required dots that connect and then lead us to our ultimate destinies?"

"Is being burnt a requisite for the making of art? Personally, I don't think it is. But art is poultice for a burn. It is a privilege to have, somewhere within you, a capacity for making something speak from your own seared experience."

"I feel a resurgence of my 6-year-old self… that little warrior, goddess of a girl reminding me of who I was when I was little, before the world got its hands on me."

"Hearts are breakable,"Isabelle said. "And I think even when you heal, you're never what you were before"."

"Instead of saying, "I'm damaged, I'm broken, I have trust issues"say "I'm healing, I'm rediscovering myself, I'm starting over."

"But no matter how much evil I see, I think it’s important for everyone to understand that there is much more light than darkness."

"I fantasize the night sky to be like a cosmic blue print of my life as I close my eyes and unbutton my heart…. just in case anyone up there is listening."
