Today, I’m quick to love and throw my arms around any girl who has ever stared at a puddle of her own vomit and questioned the point of her life.

Or who has ever been afraid to face the pain and suffering, within and outside of herself.Today, I’m quick to love.","author":"Shannon Kopp","tags":["animal-welfare","animals","dog","dogs","eating-disorder-recovery","eating-disorders","faith","happiness","healing","hope","humane-society","inspiration","inspirational","joy","life","love","motivational","motivational","recovery","shelter-dogs"],"id":131308,"author_id":"Shannon+Kopp"},{"text":"Sometimes we take leaps of faith, and sometimes we take tiny steps.

Like searching for a smile in my heart when my mind was busy screaming about how sad and serious I should be.","author":"Shannon Kopp","tags":["animal-welfare","animals","dog","dogs","eating-disorder-recovery","eating-disorders","faith","happiness","healing","hope","humane-society","inspiration","inspirational","joy","life","love","motivational","motivational","recovery","shelter-dogs"],"id":190391,"author_id":"Shannon+Kopp"},{"text":"Let go of toxic control, in order to regain healthy control.","author":"Kayla Rose Kotecki","tags":["anorexia","bikini-competitions","bikini-contest","bingeing","body-image","body-positive","bodybuilding","bulimia","clean-eating","cleansing","detox","dieting","diets-don-t-work","eat-clean","eating-clean","eating-disorder-recovery","eating-disorders","fasting","food-freedom","fruitarian","mental-health","non-fiction","orthorexia","purging","raw-food","raw-vegan","starvation"],"id":197370,"author_id":"Kayla+Rose+Kotecki"},{"text":"Soon, when all is well, you're going to look back on this period of your life and be so glad that you never gave up.","author":"Brittany Burgunder","tags":["believe-in-yourself","eating-disorder-recovery","everything-happens-for-a-reason","everything-will-be-alright","good-enough","growth","hard-times","hardship","inner-strength","inspirational","it-gets-better","journey-in-life","life-lessons","life","mental-health","mental-illness","motivational","never-give-up","never-give-up","not-alone","overcomer","overcoming-obstacles","personal-development","recovery","stronger-than-you-know","trust-yourself"],"id":212415,"author_id":"Brittany+Burgunder"},{"text":"Recovery doesn't mean putting your life on hold.
