Paying attention

I understand now that I’m not a mess, but a deeply feeling person in a messy world. I explain that now, when someone asks me why I cry so often: “For the same reason I laugh so often— because I’m paying attention.”

I'm listening to #GlennonDoyle's podcast #WeCanDoHardThings. In ep 251, she refers to #SineadOConnor as "an inconvenient prophet" who was right about everything.

I can't agree more. So it makes me wonder:

Who are our inconvenient prophets today? Who are the troublesome truth-tellers we need to honor & listen to *now* while they're still alive, instead of paying them mass homage only after their deaths?

What do you think? Who are today's #InconvenientProphets?

#untamed is such a good book, and there are so many important quotes in the book that I never want to forget, or that I want to revisit later. I am using my blog to keep track of these now, and wanted to share Part I of the quotes I loved. I hope this encourages people to read the book #Blog #Books #BookQuotes #Untamed #GlennonDoyle #Blogger #Quotes #Growth
