“ You've got to kick fear to the side, because the payoff is huge. ”
Over half a million women are raped in this country every year, and only a fraction of them report it because they're too ashamed. It’s a really screwed up world, but its not your fault, and what happened to you, it doesn't make you the monster.
~ Mariska Hargitay
The experience of being cared for is profound, and it nourishes the soul as much as the food does the body.
Chocolate is the first luxury. It has so many things wrapped up in it: Deliciusness in the moment, childhood memories, and that grin-inducing feeling of getting a reward for being good.
I am grateful that I didn't let fear get the best of me. It only holds you back from possibilities and greatness.
