Women's work is always toward wholeness.

She saw her sitting with her son in the window and the cloud moving and the tree bending, how life, from being made up of little separate incidents which one lived one by one, became curled and whole like a wave which bore one up and threw one down with it, there, with a dash on the beach.

Happiness is when the body, mind, and soul experience a sense of complete wholeness.

The whole truth is this: the time of the half-life is over. Done.There's no more time for half-hearted living, half-truths and dividing life into neat compartments. We have work to do here. It begins from the inside-out, with a commitment to see ourselves as whole and to embrace the fullness of who we are and who we are becoming.

It is the irony of this story that the one who scared me witless to start with was the very same who brought me peace, purpose, I dare say even wholeness.

When the storm rips you to pieces, you get to decide how to put yourself back together again.

We are all made complete by our pain.

Work to become whole enough to love and to be loved.

I sometimes continue to see myself in split ways; it causes me trouble and contributes to a lack of satisfaction with myself.

Right now, in this moment, I'm whole again.
