I've come to realize...Mirjam, thanks so much! <br /><br />I've come to realize in just the past few weeks how many of us feel that we don't belong anywhere. And as Brené Brown has said, "without love and belonging, there is suffering." We're hardwired to need connection, to need to belong. But we can't be dependent on others for our belonging. <br /><br />Maya Angelou once said, "I belong to Maya. And I like Maya very much." We all belong to ourselves.<br /><br />In a talk I heard just last night from Brené Brown, she said, in effect, "I belong everywhere and anywhere that I am true to myself."<br />Sheyna Galyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06168903155025395406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14782911.post-11609648609919292442017-09-05T02:00:31.630-05:002017-09-05T02:00:31.630-05:00This poem spoke to my heart.This poem spoke to my heart.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11692271711144359897noreply@blogger.com
