This amazing quote came to me today, from a visit to the Road Less Traveled, (quote attribution Unknown, I tried to look it up– if you know, leave it in the comments please!!)
I found the artist! Kristen Jongen
Oh my.
Such resonance for me.
I wrote this long ago on my other blog:
“I came apart so fully I was sure that there was no way to ever ever put myself back together. And in some ways I was right, I am not the same person as before. This one, this one is different. I like to think of the cracks as something beautiful, the glue as evidence of strength, the holes as openness to new things, the stains as evidence of mistakes I will not be making again.”
Today, consider taking a moment to truly honor your broken places, your healing places. Just for a breath. Maybe two.
