Bathed Abrasion
Statement: Personal growth is important because it makes us more flexible, more understanding, and better prepared for the future and it also enriches the lives of those around us. Whether abrasive or gentle, trust the cleansing process as well we know that where there is smoke there is fire, where there is fire there is light, where there is light there is an enlightenment of the soul. "The soul which cannot endure fire and smoke won't find the secret." Rumi

Emotional Leakage
Statement: Occasionally we may spring an emotional leak. It is okay when it happens in private but becomes complicated when in public. Feelings of shame, weakness, ridicule, and criticism might accompany these moments but it is important to understand that the expression is not a sign of weakness or failure but a sign of emotional health. Our culture, and consequently we, place a lot of pressure on ourselves to appear strong and confident when, in fact, what makes us beautifully human is our moments of sensitivity.

I’m Alive
Statement: A tree in winter is transformed and laid bare by unstoppable changes. At that time, there is no hiding its imperfections from all who look upon it, but the tree is not ashamed of its translucence, for it knows full well of the transformation and beauty taking place within, soon to reveal on the outside.
