Broken Is The Beginning

​ 
*Most of the magic in my life has happened when my life is shattered.

*You become real when the shine wears off of life.

*Grieving with another human being is one of the most holy places to be.

*We avoid pain, but sometimes pain and grief is the place to be with people.
It’s the realest place we can be.

*I spend some time allowing my heart to be broken open for someone else.
That’s how we end up feeling connected.

*When a friend is grieving, all we have to do is be present.
If we just accepted our presence as a gift instead of always trying to find the
right thing to say, people would feel more capable of grieving with each other.

*That’s where the wisdom is born—when everything falls apart.

*You have to let everything fall apart before you find out what’s indestructible about you.
