If the mountain seems too big today then climb a hill instead. If the morning brings you sadness it's ok to stay in bed. If the day ahead weighs heavy and your plans feel like a curse, there's no shame in rearranging, don't make yourself feel worse. If the shower stings like needles and a bath feels like you'll drown, and you haven't washed your hair for days don't throw away your crown. A day is not a lifetime a rest is not defeat. Don't think of it as failure just a quiet, kind retreat. It's ok to take a moment from an anxious, fractured mind the world will not stop turning while you get realigned. The mountain will still be there when you want to try again. You can climb it in your own time, just love yourself till then
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high There's a land that I've heard of Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true
Some day I'll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where troubles melt like lemon drops Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly Birds fly over the rainbow Why, then, oh why can't I?
If happy little blue birds fly Beyond the rainbow Why oh why, can't I?
Yes you can ! Soar! Love and Blessings Beautiful Soul!
A group of hikers sent out to climb a mountain. It was a challenging trail nut not impossible to
conquer. Some found the rocky terrain to be bothersome and so turned back. Others decided to stop part way up and forego the summit. Only a few opted to press on, not really knowing their efforts would be worthwhile. But when these few
finally stood on what seemed the top of the world ,
their struggle became gloriously rewarded.
The sun shine of tomorrow is the optimism of today.
Much Love and Blessings May the World know Peace.
May all Hearts know Peace
So many of you are afraid that if you pray for those you don't like, you will empower the darkness, but love can never call forth darkness. Love and prayer coax forth only light.
Your Purpose.... The day you discover your purpose never comes a day too late. It will take you by surprise and completely change your fate. The life you had been living may no longer have appeal.
You've reached the understanding that in order to truly live, you are going to have to do more than think, love and feel. You are going to have to take action. What are your dreams? What are you passionate about? Have you asked yourself these questions? Are you tired of living in doubt, or it is that you are just delaying your dreams until you feel more comfortable with making those changes? When you want a life that is filled with purpose and meaning and there is no time like the present.
Make a plan...write it down and work your plan. Bring your dreams into reality. Your soul has finally found its calling. You will not live your life in the shadow of your true self any longer. It's like the light switch has finally been switched on. You're full of possibilities, positive energy and expectations. The reasons have all changed now, the goal is crystal clear: This moment is the only thing that's certain, the time to change is now.
Today you have decided that your dreams are yours to realize. Your wings are ready, it's time to fly and with this new found hope you take the leap. Spread your wings and fly... Soar ...Blessings and Love...Carol Anne....
There may be days when you get up in the morning and things aren't the way you had hoped they would be. That’s when you have to tell yourself that things will get better. There are times when people disappoint you and let you down. Those are the times when you must remind yourself to trust your own judgements and opinions, to keep your life focused on believing in yourself. There will be challenges to face and changes to make in your life, and it is up to you to accept them. Constantly keep yourself headed in the right direction for you. It may not be easy at times, but in those times of struggle you will find a stronger sense of who you are. So, when the days come that are filled with frustration and unexpected responsibilities, remember to believe in yourself and all you want your life to be. Because the challenges and changes will only help you to find the goals that you know are meant to come true for you.
l Believe in you Friend .
Love and blessings to all,
Carol Anne
Attitude is the master key to life. with the right one, you can open any door.
Every day, in the real world around us , real ~ life angels are doing the things they do...and bringing more smiles to the world around them...Real ~ life angels build bridges instead of walls.
They don't play hide ~ and ~ seek with the truth , they do whatever they can to help you. Real ~ life angels understand the difficulties and always give the benefit of the doubt...They don't hold other up to the standards they can't live by themselves.
Real ~ life angels are what "inner beauty" is all about...Real ~ life angels don't hold things against you; the only things they hold is you. They take their hand in yours when you could use a little reassurance. They walk beside you when you could do with a little guidance and direction in your life. And they support you in your attempts to do what is right...Real ~ ~ life angels multiply your smiles and add to your integrity. They make you feel like, "Hey, I really am somebody who matters."
Then they quietly prove to you how beautiful and true that feeling really is. If you come across an angel like this, you are one of the luckiest people of all. If someone in your life is wonderfully like a angel to you, it's important to let them know. It's the nicest compliment you could ever give. In all the days of your life and in all the years you live. Sending Angels Blessings to all. “One of God's arrangements is that after winter there should come beautiful spring days. It happens every year and it happens in every life.” - Father Joseph (Submitted by Lotus Song)....and especially selected by Carol Anne Paradis as a message that inspires us to be all that we can be!

Top 10 Things Cats Would Google (If They Could
Someone posed the question, “If cats could use Google, what would they search for?” on social media, the responses were nothing short of hilarious.
A cat using a computer
Cat lovers from all over chimed in with answers that truly captured the quirky, independent spirit of our feline friends.
Here are the top 10 responses:
1. If cats could use the internet, they would probably just upload funny memes of humans like we do with cats.
2. Why do humans bathe in water when they seem to have a perfectly good tongue?
3. Why do they keep stealing my poo?
4. Is not being fed every 2 minutes abuse?
5. What dead animal do humans like as a gift?
6. Where does my servant go during daytime?
7. Why humans are not active during night?
8. Define: pspspspspsps
9. I can see the bottom of my bowl. Will I die of starvation?
10. Meow meow memeowmeow?
The general consensus seems to be that if cats had access to Google, their searches would primarily focus on trying to make sense of the strange behaviors of their human companions/loyal servants.
“To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness. What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places — and there are so many — where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory.” — Howard Zinn, You Can't Be Neutral on a Moving Train
Have a Beautiful weekend .Beautiful Soul . Love and Blessings.
