Lift Your Heart...

"Refuse to fall down. If you cannot refuse to fall down, refuse to stay down. If you cannot refuse to stay down, then lift your heart toward heaven, and like a hungry beggar, ask that it be filled, and it will be filled. You may be pushed down. You may be kept from rising. But no one can keep you from lifting your heart toward heaven."

Believe...

"In yourself, in love, in trust, in magic, in angels, in happy endings. In God, in promises, in miracles. In people, in fairy tales, in following your heart. In peace, in happiness, in never giving up. In following your passions, and making your dreams come true, in always having fun. In helping people, in making the world a better place, in changing for the better. Believe."

Allow Yourself to be Seen...

"This is what I have learned. We must allow ourselves to be seen. Deeply seen. And vulnerably seen. We must allow ourselves to love with our whole hearts, even though there is no guarantee. And to practise gratitude and joy, even in those moments of fear and when we are wondering, "Can I love you this much?". Because to feel vulnerable means you are alive. Believe that you are enough."

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."

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...

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.

A Big Heart...

"I have a big heart. And I will use it."

Unknown

"Ich habe ein großes Herz. Und ich werde es benutzen."

Words, that I read in a German magazine the other day.

And as I read them, I found myself smiling and saying "Yes".

I hope they leave you smiling and saying the same.

Much Loves,
