Important Realizations Come Gently

 
It pays to quiet yourself enough to hear these gentle discoveries. 
They can so easily be suffocated by the cacophony 
of the outer world as well as from the inner din of programmed voices.

"You're ok just as you are right now."
"Go ahead and feel where it hurts.  You won't disappear."
"It's ok, even rejuvenating, to weep uncontrollably." 
"Take care of your heart like you take care of your hair and skin."
"Some things are super heavy and extremely difficult.  You can do it.  
One breath, one thought, one feel at a time."
"If you look for joy, you will find it.  
If you look for sorrow, you will find that, too.
Stir them together often as 
great sorrow and exquisite joy travel together."

An assortment of whispers from my quiet place.
New to me as I wrote this.
