    Israel Memories – My New Project

  • Sitting with difficult emotions

    Sitting with difficult emotions

    I noticed this quote on Tumblr. I’ve noticed on the few occasions I’m able to just sit with difficult emotions in a meditation, they tend not to be as monolithic as they otherwise seemed beforehand.
