. . . Take a sacred pause. Allow questions to remain unanswered, for now. . . . Allow yourself to not be able to hold it all up today. Allow yourself to not know how, to not know at all.
Allow the heart to break, if it needs to, and the body to ache, and the soul to wake. Everything is so okay, when you get down to it. So okay, here.
And know you are loved.
– Jeff Foster
