Quote for the current week

'Loving ourselves is facing ourselves, especially those parts that we usually hide until we are in the throes of creation. Meditation teachers tell us that the real purpose of meditation practice is to 'be' with all those parts in a nonjudgmental way, reclaiming the parts of ourselves we have relegated to the shadows. It is the same for creators. We need all the parts of ourselves to create, and we need courage to love ourselves enough that it can happen.'

Jeanne Carbonetti from 'Making Pearls, Living the Creative Life'
