I have turned a blind eye so many times. For fear of feeling when I am too busy to feel for people. For fear of being sad or crying for others. Tuesday has taught me that it is ok to open your arms for the broken hearted. It's ok to smile at strangers. It's ok to help even when you think you can't.
"Refuse to fall down.
If you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down. If you cannot refuse to stay down,
lift your heart toward heaven and like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled and it will be filled.
You may be pushed down. You may be kept from rising.
But no one can keep you from lifting your heart to heaven--only you.
It is in the middle of misery that so much becomes clear.
The one who says nothing good came of this, is not yet listening."
-Clarisse Pinkola Estes
