nothing but tenderness



"the awakened heart is nothing but tenderness . . .
it feels soft and sore and if you open your eyes
to the rest of the world, you feel tremendous sadness. 
This occurs because your heart is completely exposed.
There is no protective covering. 
Your experience is raw and tender and so personal. 
It is this tender heart that has the power to heal the world."

  1. I do not know if it's just me or if everyone else experiencing issues with your website.
    It seems like some of the written text on your posts are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this
    is happening to them too? This may be a issue with
    my internet browser because I've had this happen previously.
    Thank you

    1. Dear Anonymous,
      I am so sorry you are having difficulty with the formatting of my blog. I haven't had others comment that this is a problem, but certainly don't want anyone to experience this. Let me know if you determine it is on the blog end.
      Thank you for visiting.
      Blessings today
