I am a collector of words

Words feed me, free me, comfort, uplift and heal me. I've been saving my favorites in books, handwritten over the years and thought that perhaps in sharing them, not only am I preserving them for myself, but perhaps others may also find healing in them as I have.

Beginnings

"Beginnings often frighten us because they seem like lonely voyages into the unknown...this is not the case.   Shelter and energy come alive when a beginning is embraced...We are never alone in our beginnings...A beginning is ultimately an invitation to open toward gifts and growth that are stored up for us.   To refuse to begin can be an act of great self-neglect."   John O'Donahue
