“Once we recognize what it is we are feeling. Once we recognize we can feel deeply, love deeply, can feel joy, then we will demand that all parts of our lives produce that kind of joy.” -Audre Lorde
It takes courage to demand 100% joy for yourself. It’s much easier to sit back and accept less. But if we accept less for ourselves, then we allow other people’s visions to rule our lives, not our own. That leads to discomfort.
All parts of your life deserve joy and love and happiness. Don’t allow naysayers to tell you otherwise. Have courage today and claim your joy.
