The beauty of life is in its shades of light and dark, heartbreak and healing, joy and sadness, laughter and tears. Everything can't possibly be happy because then NOTHING would be happy.

You haven’t yet learned that your worth isn’t found in him. Or in the man before him. Or in any man at all.

Sometimes it takes great heartbreak to find great healing and even greater wholeness.

It's an audacious way to live, indeed, standing with the door to your heart and life wide open. But isn't that the REAL fairytale…a brave, bold, well-lived life?

You can’t truly heal from a loss until you allow yourself to really FEEL the loss.

True strength is knowing that you don't have to be strong every single second of the day.
