Rupi Kaur is a writer and artist who writes specifically of feminism, love, hope, and trauma. Her words are written to encourage and empower anyone who reads them. Her first book, "Milk and Honey" was written in four parts to emphasize the hurt, loving, breaking, and healing that we all experience throughout our lives.
1. "Stay strong through your pain, grow flowers from it. You have helped me grow flowers out of mine so bloom beautifully, dangerously, loudly, bloom softly. However you need, just bloom."
2. "It takes grace to remain kind in cruel situations."
3. "I have what I have and I am happy. I've lost what I've lost and I am still happy."
4. "How you love yourself is how you teach others to love you."
5. "You must want to spend the rest of your life with yourself first."
6. "Give to those who have nothing to give to you."
7. "Accept that you deserve more than painful love. Life is moving, the healthiest thing for your heart is to move with it."
8. "I know it's hard, believe me. I know it feels like tomorrow will never come and today will be the most difficult day to get through, but I swear you will get through it. The hurt will pass, as it always does. If you give time and let it, so let it go. Slowly, like a broken promise."
9. "You were a dragon long before he came around and said you could fly. You will remain a dragon long after he's gone."
10. "If the hurt comes, so will the happiness."
