open heart

“When you open yourself to the continually changing, impermanent, dynamic nature of your own being and of reality, you increase your capacity to love and care about other people and your capacity to not be afraid. You’re able to keep your eyes open, your heart open, and your mind open. And you notice when you get caught up in prejudice, bias, and aggression. You develop an enthusiasm for no longer watering those negative seeds, from now until the day you die. And, you begin to think of your life as offering endless opportunities to start to do things differently.”

    • Thank you so much…I truly appreciate your blog as well and your courage in standing up for women. I find inspiration from you and so many others.
      I am rediscovering that my heart is indeed beautiful…it has taken many tears, but I’m experiencing the beauty of my own heart and finding the courage to share it with the world.
