What will you fill your empty with?
Anger and bitterness or love and legacy?
"Losses are only wasted if we don't let them give us what they long to give us:
More love, more grace, more gratitude, more wisdom, more Jesus" -Ann Voskamp
Losses leave a wake
that wakes you
to the meaningfulness of what was,
& why it deeply mattered,
&what message you want to live now.

It takes uncommon courage to believe:
Losses take but losses give.
Every loss gives you
space for something else.
Losses take but losses give.
Every loss gives you
space for something else.
You bravely have to ask -- what else?
Because:
No emptiness ever stays empty.
Empty places always fill.
No emptiness ever stays empty.
Empty places always fill.
And we choose what fills the empty places: anger, bitterness, distractions, hardness -- or hope & dreams & love & legacy & more life.
Losses are only wasted if we don't let them give us what they long to give us:
More love, more grace, more gratitude, more wisdom, more Jesus.
More love, more grace, more gratitude, more wisdom, more Jesus.
It takes uncommon courage to ask:
How might this emptiness be filled with more that's fulfilling?
