Don't let anyone dim your light, don't let anyone say That your dreams are too big, and they should just fade away For you have a fire within, that's ready to ignite Just chase your dreams, and they'll take flight.
It won't be easy, there'll be bumps along the way But with hard work and determination, you'll find a way To make your dreams a reality, and live a life that's true So never give up, and keep chasing after what you want to do.
Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be (possibly your roommate, neighbor, coworker, longlost friend, lover, or even a complete stranger) but when you lock eyes with them, you know at that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way.
And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but in reflection you find that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your potential, strength, willpower, or heart.
Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.
Once there was a wise old owl who lived in a tree. One day, a storm blew down the tree, but the owl remained unharmed. The moral: true strength lies not in outward appearances, but in inner resilience.

What the World Needs Now is Love Sweet Love Thats the Only Thing That Theres Too Little Of
It was one of the coldest winters, and many animals were dying because of the cold. The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together to keep each other warm. This was a great way to protect themselves from the cold and keep each of them warm, but the quills of each one wounded their closest companions.
After a while, they decided to distance themselves, but they too began to die due to cold. So they had to make a choice: either accept the quills of their companions or choose death. Wisely, they decided to go back to being together. They learned to live with a few wounds caused by their close relationship with their companions to receive the warmth of their togetherness. This way, they were able to survive.
Watch the Miracle of transformation as brown, dead winter becomes vibrant , living springtime, and know that your soul will thus bloom again.
The Gift is life itself~~everything that is born into this world and grows and strives to achieve its purpose for being here on this level of existence . Two Ways Wakan Tanka can be interpreted are "the large mystery" or "the great sacred". Either is enough to describe the essence of the sacredness of life, of all life. All of us , no matter who or what we are , are given the opportunity to participate to the fullest on the journey we are born into , to honor the gift and sacredness of life by finding and
fulfilling our purpose , and to do good and leave our world a better place in some some way.
Being at the present moment can increase your peace of mind. One example of a simple but extremely powerful relaxing technique is breathing exercises.
By focusing on your breathing when things are getting quite chaotic can aid you to be more attuned to the present.
If you are looking for more relaxing techniques that might work for you, you can also try activities such as going for a long walk, doing yoga, listening to music, writing and practicing meditation.
Finding Inner Peace Midst the New World
To find inner and true peace can be a challenge for more than one reason. Our society is more connected than ever before, but this connection doesn’t always provide the comfort that we crave.
We are constantly bombarded with news updates, social media posts, and instant messaging alerts which perpetuate our feelings of never being “good enough”. At the same time, it can be hard to step away from all of this noise because of how much work needs to get done.
Don't listen when your heart , worn and tired, tells you to give up. Don't give up! Your heart needs a rest and nourishment. In God , there is rest for all who are exhausted; in his promises there is enough food for the weary soul.
Wakan Tanka Nici Un (May the Great Spirit walk with you~~~May the stars carry your sadness away , May the flowers fill your heart with Beauty, May hope forever wipe away your tears , And above all, May the silence make you strong !Soar my friend.
Raking up lifeless brown stalks in the frost ~ filled
garden, I can't help but see images of marigolds, hot~ yellow peppers, and jade~ green zucchini;
I smile, knowing that spring will soon be here.
Do not look at how difficult the road ahead looks ~
How high the pitch of the mountain, how hot the desert sun, how distant the place of rest. You can not see every part of the path, and unseen gifts are ahead along the way .Believe.

Don't Quit
by Edgar Albert Guest
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, when the road you're trudging seems all uphill, when the funds are low and the debts are high, and you want to smile but you have to sigh, when care is pressing you down a bit - rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a fellow turns about when he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow - you may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up when he might have captured the victor's cup; and he learned too late when the night came down, how close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out - the silver tint of the clouds of doubt, and when you never can tell how close you are, it may be near when it seems afar; so stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - it's when things seem worst, you must not quit.
Stay Strong Soar like a Eagle Keep Going Love and Blessings
