Quote of The Day

 

Sadness draws us downward, below our usual self-presentation. There we may stay, dipping into our tears, or we might try to insulate ourselves against them or seek some sort of lift to a less overtly sorrowful place. Yet if we remain with our sadness, allowing it its natural gravity, giving it room to breathe and flow and have a voice, we usually will find ourselves not drowning or withering in it but soberly restored and eased, with our heart opening in unexpected ways...
