Believe in Your Dreams...


"If you believe in your dreams, you allow your dreams to believe in you. 
If you trust in your dreams, you allow your dreams to trust in you."

Angela Gwinner

Like with every relationship, like with every friendship...

It's about believing and trusting. In each other.

Much Loves,

Angela.

whose only job is to make sure you do not get too comfortable

Shine. And Manifest.


"We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us. It is in everyone."

Marianne Williamson

I Believe in You...


"Saying the words 'I Believe in You' 
is often the beginning of a Miracle."

Angela Gwinner

I believe in you... In each and every one of you!

And thank you, for all that have always believed in me.

Much Loves,

Angela.

Knock Knock...


"The door opened. Because I knocked."

Paulo Coelho

Learning...

 
"I have learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I have learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.

I have learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you will miss them when they are gone from your life.

I have learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life." I have learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I have learned that you should not go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands, you need to be able to throw something back.

I have learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I have learned that even when I have pains, I do not have to be one. I have learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.

I have learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

I have learned that I still have a lot to learn."

Rita Schiano

What Are You Going to Do...?


"Life is not about expecting, hoping and wishing. it is about doing, being and becoming. It is about the choices you have just made, and the ones you are about to make. it is about the things you choose to say. Today. And it is about what you are going to do after you finish reading this."

Mike Dooley

Please Don't Let This Happen...


"Oh my God. What if you wake up some day, and you’re 65, or 75, and you never got your memoir or novel written. Or you didn’t go swimming in warm pools and oceans all those years because your thighs were jiggly and you had a nice big comfortable tummy. Or you were just so strung out on perfectionism and people pleasing that you forgot to have a big juicy creative life, of imagination and radical silliness and staring off into space like when you were a kid? It is going to break your heart, my dear. Please don’t let this happen. "

Anne Lamott

Please don't let this happen...

Start living. Your life. Your dreams. Now.

It is never too late. If you start... Now.

Become a Possibilitarian


"Become a possibilitarian. 
No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see possibilities. 
Always see them, for they are always there.”

Norman Vincent Peale
Declare it possible. And it becomes possible.

Oh dear God. I love this quote!

Become a possibilitarian.

Much Loves,

Angela.

Let Your Light Shine...

we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. 
As we are liberated from our own fear, 
our presence actually liberates others."

Sweet Surrender...


Sweet Surrender...

"You surrender to a lot of things which are not worthy of you. 
I wish you would surrender to your radiance and your integrity. 
And to your beautiful human grace."

Yogi Bhajan

Signed. Numbered. Limited Editions.









Today, the first of the WUNDERWORT art prints found their way and are now available at Alex's TollkĂ¼hn in Offenburg.

Each print is a signed and numbered edition of 99 prints.

A Rumi collection is in the making and a few of those will be in an exhibit I'll be doing together with Katja from my flowers of life. A formal invitation will be sent out over the next days.

So there are little things happening here and there.

And to think, it was all inspired through My Beautiful Words. And the gifts you have given me here, helping me make this all and what it is.

If you are interested in these prints, you can contact me personally at www.WUNDERWORT.com

It's a collection in the growing and in the making...

Much Loves, Always.

Angela.

Beautiful People Become...


"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These people have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."

Elisabeth KĂ¼bler-Ross

Beautiful people do not just happen. Beautiful people become.

And I thank you, for being beautiful.

Much Loves,

Angela.

The Imagination of God...


"Imagination is the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God it is that. He dared to imagine everything."

Henry Miller

I can't remember exactly when I first read these words. But it does go a many few years back. Teenager years. But I will never forget the passion these words gave me, and ignited in me.

And I believe, much of what I do today, and my ongoing love for words and the power of words, I can attribute to the emotion and intensity of this beautiful quote.

To this day, and most likely forever more, it remains one of my personal favourite quotes, of many. But this one, holds a special place. Like the first kiss would hold a special place.

It was the start of a loving relationship... with words.

Much Loves,

Angela.

rollercoaster instead."

Gareth Pugh

Passion is Purpose...

Julia Child

Messages and Coincidences and Serendipities...


"The Universe is always speaking to us. sending us little messages, causing coincidences and creating serendipities, reminding us to stop and to look around. Reminding us to believe in something else, to believe in something more."

Nancy Thayer

A New Day...


"I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, 
a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic 
waiting somewhere behind the morning."

J. B. Priestly  

Shall We Begin?


"The openness to begin is all the openness we are required to have each day. We start today, and tomorrow we start again, and the day after we start again, as we will the day after that. In this way, and no other, does our journey come to us. We begin. And the rest unfolds through us."

Julia Cameron

Shall we begin?

And we'll let it unfold... Begin. Now.

Much Loves,

Angela.

The First Time... The Last Time...


"One way to open your eyes is to ask yourself, 
'What if I had never seen this before? 
And what if I knew i would never see this again?'"

Rachel Carson

Learning to see things in a different light. Learning to be aware, attentive, appreciative. Here. Now. This moment.

It's like this with all things in life, I believe.

Love as though you are loving for the first time. And loving for the last time. Embrace as though you are embracing for the first time. And embracing for the last time. Kiss that way too.

Laugh as though you are laughing for the first time. And laughing for the last time. Listen as though you are listening for the first time. And listening for the last time. See as though you are seeing the stars or a tree for the first time. And seeing for the last time. Touch that way too.

Stand in the middle of the world and reach your hands out high as though it were the first time. And as though it were the last time.

Each and every moment we are given, is simply once.

And once, is once and for all.

Much Loves,

Angela.

Drink Champagne...


"I drink champagne on two occassions. 
When I am in love. And when I am not."

Coco Chanel

I'll translate this as follows...

There is always something to celebrate.

Whether you are in love. Or not. Find that reason to celebrate.

And if you can't find it. Create it.

Much Loves,

Angela.

I Have a Hunch...


"Never argue with a hunch..."

Florence Scovel Shinn

Now You Know...


"I wish I had known from the beginning that I was born a strong woman. What a difference it would have made. I wish I had known that I was born a courageous woman. I have spent so much of my life cowering. How many conversations would I not only have started, but finished if I had known I possessed a warrior's heart? I wish I had known that I was born to take on the world. I wouldn't have run from it for so long, rather I would have run to it and embraced it with open arms. Now I know."

Sarah Ban Breathnach

Dear beautiful women... Now you know.

And it is time to embrace yourself and the world.

Much Loves, Angela.

No matter how many times it is sent away."

Take it Easy...


"Go where your best prayers take you. 
Unclench the fists of your Spirit and take it easy. 
Breathe deep of the glad air and live one day at a time. 
Know that you are precious."

Frederick Buechner
