May peace and happiness
always be with you,
both at work and in life.
And may hope never be lacking in your heart!
~ Merry Christmas! ~
It's worth taking the time to find
the things that truly move you.
That's what makes you feel alive.
You have to say 'no' to other things you're
used to, and do it with all your heart.
~ Roy T. Bennett ~
“Elegance is a radiant inner peace.
Grace is the capacity to give,
as well as to receive and be grateful.
Mystery is a hidden laugh
always ready to surface!
Glamour only radiates if there is sublime courage
and bravery within:
glamour is like the moon;
it only shines because the sun is there.”
~ C. JoyBell ~
We are who we are, neither as good
nor as bad as we're made out to be.
And who we are doesn't change
how we truly feel, only our freedom
to follow those feelings.
~ Melissa Marr ~
No matter what happens,
in most cases there is a way forward.
Move forward by assessing the facts,
with a vision of the ideal outcome in mind.
Act with kindness, consideration, and care.
And if there isn't a way yet,
it's time to forge one.
~ Grace Gibraltar ~
“Hope is a psychological mechanism
that is unaffected by external realities.”
~ Gene Wolfe ~
You weren't born to please anyone;
you have to live life to express yourself,
not to impress anyone.
Don't pretend to be someone you're not,
and never lose yourself seeking
the acceptance and approval of others.
Don't let the memories of your past
limit the potential of your future.
There are no limits to what you can
achieve on your journey through life,
except in your mind.
Endings aren't bad; they just mean something
else is about to begin.
And many things don't really end;
they simply begin again in a new way.
Endings aren't bad, and many endings
aren't really endings;
some things are eternal.
The best thing about dreams is that they don't expire.
They can lie dormant for years,
and when you retrieve them and dust them off,
they shine like new.
~ Almost McLean ~
