Openhearted

This space is for my favorite words from ‘openhearted’ individuals who stir passion within me and ignite the fires of courage…

I’ve always been a HUGE fan of quotes. I cling to them with them through good times and bad. Because after all, ‘Words are, in my not-so-humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic. Capable of both inflicting injury, and remedying it.’ – J.K. Rowling’s character Albus Dumbledore

‘Just because you are soft doesn’t mean you are not a force. Honey and wildfire are both the color of gold.’ – Victoria Erickson

‘Courage is to tell the story of who you are with your whole heart.’ – Brené Brown

‘I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.’ – Maya Angelou

‘The ego says, ‘I shouldn’t have to suffer,’ and that thought makes you suffer so much more. It is a distortion of the truth, which is always paradoxical. The truth is that you need to say yes to suffering before you can transcend it.’ – Eckhart Tolle

‘You can choose courage or you can choose comfort, but you cannot have both.’ Brené Brown
