Helpers carry a heavy load, they listen, love, cry, and often go into the depths of others' pain. They sometimes enter darkness that no person should have to step into: the darkness of the abuse of a child, of mental health, of our cultural propensity to sit back and do nothing about it. They bear this each day. ~ Jenn Bruer
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bruer
Have you ever stopped to contemplate how you might respond biologically, physically, emotionally and spiritually to the various experiences in your life? Is it possible that your thoughts become your biology? I believe wholeheartedly that they can. ~ Jenn Bruer
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bruer
While burnout obviously has something to do with stress, overdoing things, not being centred, and not listening to yourself or your body, one of the deepest contributors to burnout, I believe, is the deep disappointment of not living up to your true calling, which is to help. ~ Jenn Bruer
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bruer
Slowly you may have transformed from a helper to one in need of help. It's important to talk about this, to identify the wounds you carry. ~ Jenn Bruer
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bruer
As helpers, we often feel the need to see our impact in tangible, measurable ways. We allow negative language into our head about the "broken system;" we look through a lens of "it doesn't matter, I can't make a difference". These ideas are surely contributing to our burnout. ~ Jenn Bruer
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bruer
I now know that surrendering, allowing, and "BE-ing" is far more productive than grasping for control. I don't know why one child is born with autism and another isn't, or why some children have to fight cancer and some don't. I have lived long enough to know that life is not fair, never will be fair, and we shouldn't expect it to be. ~ Jenn Bruer
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bruer
There was no way she should find this domineering male thing he had going on attractive. And yet a tiny little feminine part of her swooned, which made the liberated woman inside of her vomit. ~ Jenn McKinlay
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn McKinlay
You've both got that sweet Hotbox sheen. Looks better on the two of you than the last pair. By the way, one of them is . . ." He swipes his thumb across his throat, indicating that the kid quit, and not that he actually offed himself. I hope.

"Another one?" Grace murmurs.

He leans back against the door, one foot propped up, scrolling through his phone. The propped-up foot puts his knee in my space, mere centimeters from mine. It's like he's purposely trying to crowd me. "This job weeds out the weak, Gracie. They should flash their photos over the teepees in the fake starry sky in Jay's Wing. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Can't command respect unless you act like you deserve it. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
You know, I found a gray hair the other day. I almost broke the sound barrier rushing to the pharmacy to get some dye. Beth snorted. Oh please! You're a blonde-no one can see gray hair up there. Now, you get one down under, and then you can panic. ~ Jenn McKinlay
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn McKinlay
A massive shudder goes through me and I freak out a little. My head's suddenly filled with all the things he's said about being eighteen and sexual freedom, and there is no doubt in my mind that he's exercised his rights with other girls - which is fine, whatever. No judgment. It's just that I have . . . not, and all this super-filthy kissing makes me more than aware of the experience gap between us. Which worries me. And thrills me. And worries me.

(And thrills me.)

Dear God: Save me from myself. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Consolations are empty when you're alone ~ Jenn Waterman
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Waterman
I'm sorry you have to see me like this. I'm sorry I'm not...not who I should be." "I'm ~ Jenn Burke
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Burke
With a tug, I pulled Len off his knees, wrapped my arms around him, and
hugged him close. Behind his back, I flashed a middle finger of defiance I hoped
Cupid saw high up on Mount Olympus.

Fuck soul mates. Fuck Grayson. Fuck Cupid.

I was keeping the ring. ~ Jenn Windrow
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Windrow
I could be the lone Eskimo, friend of whales and seals.
The Panopticon ~ Jenn Fagan
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Fagan
I take class at the Groundlings, and my personal coach is Lesley Kahn. ~ Jenn Proske
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Proske
Jenn: Do you love him?
Ani: Yeah, I do.
Jenn: Then you can forgive him. It's not worth it to let love slip through your hands. ~ Cheyenne McCray
Jenn Bruer quotes by Cheyenne McCray
I'm just saying that if it's something or someone worth fighting for, you should fight for it. It's not called a fight because it's easy. ~ Jenn P. Nguyen
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn P. Nguyen
You're my favorite person, you know ... you're my favorite person, too. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
For others, I suspect the vehement dislike of tattoos [on women] is really a fear of women's skin. When a woman makes her own mark on it, she isn't quite as available to receive whatever fantasies you might want to project on to her. If skin is a screen, and a woman writes on it, she is telling the world (or even just herself) that her own standards of attractiveness are more important to her than the standards of anyone else who might cross her path. She is taking ownership. - from "Painted ladies: why women get tattoos" @theguardian.co.uk ~ Jenn Ashworth
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Ashworth
I love you, damn it. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
But we'll get through it. Bad times don't last. You just have to hang on until they pass. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
It's taken us a long time to find one another, but now we have. Together, we're strong. Strong enough to fight, and strong enough to win. ~ Jenn Reese
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Reese
I don't want my mistakes to affect everyone else in the room," I said after a moment. "I want to keep to myself and do as little damage as possible. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Porter grins at me and rubs his hands together excitedly. "This looks super weird. I'm so in. Let's play. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
When I looked up at the stars, I saw us. You were the stars and I was the dark sky behind you"
"Without dark sky you couldn't see the stars"
"I knew I was useful" he says
"You're essential ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
You can be a cocky asshole to me. I deal with little pricks like you all of the time. But you leave Jenn the hell alone or the next time you take a piss, it will be through a fucking tube. Do we understand each other? ~ Teresa Mummert
Jenn Bruer quotes by Teresa Mummert
For the love of rocks ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
To say the loaner was not pretty was an understatement. It was a 1907's olive-green Buick Century with a white top. Lindsay felt like she was driving her living-room couch, but despite the looks, the engine purred and it glided over potholes in the road like butter
on toast. ~ Jenn McKinlay
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn McKinlay
Learning to live your life without fear of judgment is the most freeing feeling possible. ~ Jenn Sadai
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Sadai
Doing nothing can cause as much damage as doing something. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Earth to Beatrix: This was the night bus, not a Journey song. Two strangers were not on a midnight train going anywhere. I was going home, and he was probably going to knock over a liquor store. When ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Len's arm brushed against mine. I pulled the cream and gold comforter over
my shoulders and cuddled closer, wishing I could stay in bed all day and snuggle.
But Cupid's minions didn't get sick days or holidays or time off for good behavior.
Instead, I got a demanding boss, no pay, and chained to a man-whore till death do
us part.

I'd complain, but I didn't think Cupid's minions had a union. ~ Jenn Windrow
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Windrow
But the most important thing to know about being an introvert is that there's nothing wrong with you. You're not broken because you're quiet. It's okay to stay home on a Friday night instead of going to a party. Being an introvert is a perfectly normal 'thing' to be. ~ Jenn Granneman
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Granneman
Someone stop them!" I yell.

No one does.

I think about Porter surrounded by people that horrible day on the beach years ago, when no one would help him save his dad from the shark. If strangers won't help when someone is dying, they're definitely not going to stop two kids from running out of a museum.

Pulse swishing in my temples, I race around the information booth, pumping my arms, and watch them split up again. Polo is heading for the easy way out: the main exit, where there's (1) only a set of doors to go through, and (2) Hector, the laziest employee on staff.

But Backpack is headed for the ticketing booth and the connecting turnstiles. Freddy should be there, but no one's entering the museum, so he's instead chatting it up with Hector. The turnstiles are unmanned.

Like a pro hustler who's never paid a subway fare, Backpack hurdles over the turnstiles in one leap. Impressive. Or it would have been, had his backpack not slipped off his shoulder and the strap not caught on one of the turnstile arms. While he struggles to free it, I take the easier route and make for the wheelchair access gate.

I unhitch the latch.

He frees the strap.

I slip through the gate, and just as he's turning to run, I lurch forward and -

I jump on his back.

We hit the ground together. The air whooshes out of my lungs and my knee slams into tile. He cries out. I don't.

I freaking ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
You trusted me.'
'You drugged me!'
He grinned. 'Yeah, I did. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
I made myself an "I Love Jennifer" jacket out of my old "I Love Jenn" jacket. Two girls, one continuous love. The I Love Jennifer is a little off-center, but then so am I. Better than being self-centered, as my clone would probably say. ~ Jarod Kintz
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jarod Kintz
Why is the vegetarian Buddhist dressed like a jewel thief? ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Mom says you should never ask for advice you aren't willing to take. I wasn't sure I agreed. Having an unbiased pair of eyes point out a sensible solution was helpful. But the sensible thing and the right thing weren't always the same choice, and no one but you could truly understand the difference. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
As John Bruer describes in The Myth of the First Three Years, nature has developed three ways for you to learn as an adult: Continue to strengthen your existing synaptic connections (as happens when you perfect a talent with relevant skills and knowledge), keep losing more of your extraneous connections (as also happens when you focus on your talents and allow other connections to deteriorate), or develop a few more synaptic connections. ~ Donald O. Clifton
Jenn Bruer quotes by Donald O. Clifton
She was unhappy. I'd made her unhappy. Making Jennifer unhappy was officially the worst feeling in the world, right up there with disappointing my brother Billy and seeing my sister cry.

So I blurted, "Have you ever done a cookiestand?"

She shook her head, sniffing, turning away from me to grab two cups.

"What's that?" Her voice was rough.

"It's like a keg stand, but with cookies."

Jenn's movements stilled. She blinked. A new frown formed, but this one was thoughtful, not miserable.

"You mean where those people do a handstand and drink beer?"

"That's right. But with cookies."

"That sounds awful."

"At least you don't get crumbs on your shirt." I bit into the third cookie.

"Yes, but," Jenn shook her head, a hesitant smile claiming her luscious lips, "then they'd go up your nose."

"That's the best part. You can save them for later. ~ Penny Reid
Jenn Bruer quotes by Penny Reid
Who was I to meddle in people's love lives? Mine was a mess. My heart
wanted the one thing it wasn't allowed to have - love with someone besides my
cupid-appointed soul mate. I was so screwed up, I made the dysfunctional
relationships on Jerry Springer look wholesome. ~ Jenn Windrow
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Windrow
It was a horrible thing to be age-stamped by the boyband of your heart. ~ Jenn McKinlay
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn McKinlay
And you're apparently made of mountain. Are you sure you're an engineer and not a lumberjack? ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Angie is only getting married once," Marty said. "While your track record for finding bodies, well, let's just say this probably won't be your last." "You ~ Jenn McKinlay
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn McKinlay
But it occurred to me suddenly that trust wasn't an object, not something that arrived on your doorstep, solid and absolute. It was a decision, a leap. ~ Jenn Marie Thorne
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Marie Thorne
At that, Marty howled great big, messy sobs, and Elanor, the little lady in the yellow suit, who organized the weddings at the church, came running with a box of tissue.
Oz appeared in the vestibule, looking alarmed. "Is everything all right? I thought someone was strangling a duck."
"Do you mind?" Marty snapped. "Me and the bride, here, we're having a moment. ~ Jenn McKinlay
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn McKinlay
Once I learned my life was valuable, I started to treat it that way. ~ Jenn Sadai
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Sadai
An improbable set of circumstances.
An impossible situation.
How long could she hold on to the truth? Should she hold on?...Was she obligated to protect the deceptions of the dead when the truth might somehow help the living? ~ Jenn J. McLeod
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn J. McLeod
Quinn." The voice on the other end of the line let out a melodramatic groan. "You are one tough person to track down." My body went from hot to cold in a blink. Andy. He'd found me. He'd called. A month too late. I scowled into the flowery wallpaper. "And how did you get this number?" "I don't know if I've mentioned that my dad is the president?" Funny. "Why are you calling me?" "Because I'm finally allowed to. ~ Jenn Marie Thorne
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Marie Thorne
It was a lot to get used to, especially in warm-ups with the wind all over the place. As the meet went on it steadied out, so I was able to get some good looks to go back and train from. ~ Jenn Suhr
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Suhr
I'd rather live up to my image of being confident than the illusion that I'm quite fit. ~ Jenn Sadai
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Sadai
Bind Merrimoth," he finally said, "and I'll do that think you like later."
"It's not like my power reacts to the reward system," I said, then added, "What thing?"
The corner of his mouth quirked. "On the chair."
"You mean the thing you like?"
"We both like," he corrected. "Win-win. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Oh, really? Is that why he's hot and bothered for Arcadia here?" Kar Yee tossed an accusatory glance my way. She was well aware that honesty wasn't one of my strong suits. "Probably," Jupe confirmed. "My dad says he likes her so much that if she kicked him in the balls, he'd just thank her. ~ Jenn Bennett
Jenn Bruer quotes by Jenn Bennett
Planning can't save you from everything. Change is inevitable and uncertainty is a given. And if you plan so much that you can't function without one, life's no fun. All the calendars, journals, and lists in the world won't save you when the sky falls. And maybe, just maybe, I've been using planning less as a coping mechanism and more as an excuse to avoid anything I couldn't control.
But that doesn't mean preparation is altogether bad. Planning can be useful when you've come out on the wrong side of a cave and need to figure out a new way to get back on route.
When all you can do is put one foot in front of the other and push forward. ~ Jenn Bennett
