You know that the antidote to exhaustion is not necessarily rest? … The antidote to exhaustion is wholeheartedness. - David Whyte

The antidote to exhaustion is not necessarily rest but wholeheartedness

The antidote to exhaustion is wholeheartedness.

The antidote to exhaustion is not rest; it's wholeheartedness.

Alone, we live in our bodies as a question rather than a statement.

The great question in disappointment is whether we allow it to bring us to ground, to a firmer sense of our self, a surer sense of the world, and what is good and possible for us in that world, or whether we experience it only as a wound that make us retreat from further participation.

And when you are humiliated all your fancy ideas about yourself and who you are and what you can accomplish and how are shriveled away suddenly in the encounter with the ground.
