Alanis Morissette quotes about
We're taught to be ashamed of confusion, anger, fear and sadness, and to me they're of equal value to happiness, excitement and inspiration.
Some of the most beautiful things that have happened to me in my life have been things that I couldn't explain.
In one breath, I can say that we are God, but in another I have to say that we aren't deities.
I found that the more truthful and vulnerable I was, the more empowering it was for me.
I think God is everything. Human beings created the punitive, vengeful deity who considers us to be innate sinners.
the truth of who we are is innate goodness, and the whole journey is really about removing any obstacle or false belief that keeps us from knowing that
I'm sorry to myself, for treating me worse than I would anybody else.
There is no better feeling than when you write something you know is a piece of you and that, at some point, is going to communicate with someone else.

I have been running so sweaty my whole life Urgent for a finish line And I have been missing the rapture this whole time Of being forever incomplete

No-strings relationships have helped cure me of love addiction. All my life I've been in long-term monogamous relationships. I had to break that pattern by not allowing myself to have a relationship for a year, stopping myself from committing to men. I haven't been celibate. I've had lots of dates and lots of sex, but I haven't been pushing to turn a date into a relationship. This has been a huge thing for me.
