If you need something from somebody always give that person a way to hand it to you.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
If you aren't giving people something to talk about, you've become too dull.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
Still everyone, including the abbot, had said that he was running away from his grief. They'd had no idea what they were talking about. He'd cradled his grief, almost to the point of loving it. For so long he refused to give it up, because leaving it behind was like leaving her.

You can't stop your heart from loving, really -- it's like standing out there in the ocean yelling at the waves to stop.

Image
Someone who thinks death is the scariest thing doesn't know a thing about life.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
Into every life a little rain must fall.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
I don't hold to the idea that God causes suffering and crisis. I just know that those things come along and God uses them. We think life should be a nice, clean ascending line. But inevitably something wanders onto the scene and creates havoc with the nice way we've arranged life to fall in place.

I missed Rosaleen's snoring the way you'd miss the sound of the ocean waves after you've gotten used to sleeping with them. I didn't realize how it had comforted me. Quiteness has a strange, spongy hum that can nearly break your eardrums.

I didn't know then what I wanted, but the ache for it was palpable.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
Honeybees depend not only on physical contact with the colony, but also require it's social companionship and support. Isolate a honeybee from her sisters and she will soon die.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
Until we look from the bottom up we have nothing.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
There's release in knowing the truth no matter how anguishing it is. You come finally to the irreducible thing, and there's nothing left to do but pick it up and hold it. Then, at last, you can enter the severe mercy of acceptance.
Sue Monk Kidd
Image
There is nothing perfect...only life.

You are my everlasting home. Don't you ever be afraid. I am enough. We are enough.
