Nurturing
“A dream doesn’t die because it has no truth. It dies because you fail to nurture it.” – Susie Clevenger
I was having a massage yesterday for the first time this year and as she began massaging the tight muscles in my leg, which was extremely painful, it made me question why I had left it so long and why I didn’t allow myself regular massages, to avoid pain or injury.
