A Queen...

"A Queen is wise. She has earned her serenity. not by having had it bestowed on her, but by having passed her tests. She has suffered and grown more beautiful because of it. She has proved she can hold her kingdom together. She has become its vision. She cares deeply about something bigger than herself. And she rules with authentic power."

Your Perfect Imperfections...

"There is perfection in imperfection."

Angela Gwinner

I know I need this reminder myself today.

And I tend to think, I'm probably not the only one.

It is our little imperfections, that make us so unique.

Like no other. A one of a kind. And once in a lifetime.

Our imperfections are what make us the Mona Lisa's of the world.

And learning to love our little imperfections...

We turn the scars on our knees and hearts into beauty marks.

We turn our weaknesses into our strengths.

And we can wear them, like the jewels on our crown.

Yes, I know I need this reminder myself today.

And I tend to think, I'm probably not the only one.

Much Loves,

Angela.

Always Be Yourself...

"Always be yourself. Never try to hide who you are. The only shame is to have shame. Always stand up for what you believe in. Always question what other people tell you. Never regret the past. It is a waste of time. And there is always a reason for everything. Every mistake, every moment of weakness, every terrible thing that has happened to you. Grow from it. The only way you can ever get the respect of others is when you show them you respect yourself. And most importantly, do your thing. And never apologize for being yourself."

Surprise the World...

"Surprise the world with your glorious Heart."

PS. It often doesn't take much.

It is about being yourself. And showing yourself.

Just the way you are.

With your beautifully crazy dreams. Your hopes.

And those edges and curves, cracks and scars and all.

Make Life Delicious...

"Every day you are stirring the pot of life, and the most important ingredient you can put into your soup is you. Your love, optimism, trust, vision, communication, authenticity, appreciation and passion make life delicious, and the relationships you create at work and at home determine the substance and quality of your soup."

Flaws and Good Intentions...

"I like flaws and feel more comfortable around people who have them. 

I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions."

Flaws. They are what make us unique. Real. And authentic too.

I like to think of them as our imperfect perfections.

And our perfect imperfections.
