Day 108n: Knowing no Retreat … (August 15, 2019)
“Fear is the glue that keeps you stuck. Courage is the solvent that sets you free … You will shiver & shake in the face of summoned greatness. And yet remember in those moments of test & truth that everything must break open in order to one day blossom and thrive. The seed must break open in order for the tree to grow. The egg must break open in order for life to emerge. The Earth must be turned for the harvest to be sown and the cloud must burst for the rains to fall. You were never meant to stay in your shell, my friends … In truth, you must either live for everything — or die for nothing.” ~ inspired by Shannon Alder, Thomas Qualls & Nate Spears
