In this weeks's Minisode I discuss this quote by Thich Nhat Hanh: "The meditator breathes in and says, "Hello my fear, my anger, my despair. I will take good care of you." This quote gives a lovely picture of how we heal our relationship with ourself. This is what I learned to do with myself. Love and accept every part of me. ❤️ Much Love, Darlene Michele 🦋

Today I discuss this quote from Fred Rogers: "When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping." To this day, especially in times of "disaster", I remember my mother's words and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers - so many caring people in this world." There's a reason the words of Mr. Rogers make an appearance during times of challenge and tragedy. I discuss this quote in the context of the current global events, and also in our personal lives.

In today's Minisode, I discuss this quote by Martin Luther King Jr.: "Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness implies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction.” In light of the recent invasion of Ukraine by Russia, this quote is running through my mind. My heart and prayers are with the Ukrainian people. 🇺🇦 Come say "hi" on Instagram @iamdarlenemichele 🦋 If you found value in this episode, please leave a review. I'd be most grateful! ❤️

I've been struggling with sadness lately. The loss of my mom, only two months ago, being sick for two months, the current hostile divide I see in my own family, in my country, and the world. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia is just another heartbreaking event. Today, I share my heart, my struggle, and how we can send more love into all the hurting places. In ourselves and in the world.
