After the storm


After a stom comes a calm. 

 ~ * ~

Clouds float into my life, 
no longer to carry rain or usher storm, 
but to add color to my sunset sky. 

Don't give up


If there's just one piece of advice I can give,
it's this: when there's something you really want
- fight for it, don't give up no matter how hopeless it seems.
And when you've lost hope,
ask yourself if ten years from now, you're gonna wish you gave it just one more shot...
because the best things in life don't come free.

~ * ~

There are times in our lives when happiness seems to elude us.
We want more...
We wish we were further along in our lives...
We desire better relationships...
We try to push ourselves beyond where we are at the moment.
Sometimes, all that is needed is a change of mind...
a change called "acceptance".
With this change there comes a sense of peace
and sudden realization that a "shift in thinking"
has brought us the very things we were looking for all along!

~ * ~

Don't give up!
The beginning is always the hardest.

~ * ~

Just when the caterpillar thought
the world was over,
it became a butterfly...

~ * ~

Don't practice until you get it right.
Practice until you can't get it wrong!


~ * ~
 
 Let today be the day you love yourself enough to no longer just dream of a better life; let today be the day you create it.

The gift of a smile

love, dashed


Everytime you smile at someone,
it is an action of love,
a gift to that person,
a beautiful thing.
~Mother Theresa

~ * ~

If you see a friend without a smile;
give him one of yours.

~ * ~

Because of your smile,
you make life more beautiful
~Thich Nhat Hanh

Love your life and choose happiness

I found this video on YouTube and just had to share it. What a man!!! A true inspiration and motivation to all of us. We do have a choice every moment and every day. You are the only one who can take charge and controll your life



"If I fall one hundred times, I will not give up. I will try again, and again and aging. It is not the end. Because what matters is how you are going to finish! I choose to finish strong! And I will find the strength to get back up."

Rebuild yourself

Puzzle  
Never be afraid to fall apart
because it is an opportunity to 
rebuild yourself the way
you wish
you had been
all along!!!

Life is at times hard, and you might feel hardship and dispair. But when you really think about it... Isn't it so, that everytime you have made it true a tough periode in life, you have also become a stronger person? Every struggle in your life has shaped you into the person you are today. Be thankful for the hard times, they can only make you stronger.

Life isn't meant to be easy, it's meant to be lived. Sometimes happy, other times rough. But with every up and down you'll learn lessons that make you stronger. I think it is important to always look to the future with hope and no regrets. Because if you live life with regrets of yesterday, you'll have no today to be thankful for!

You are the only one who can live your life. Obstacles can't stop you. Neither can problems. Most of all: other people can't stop you. The only one who stops you is yourself!

Some people live in the past, some spend their whole lives trying to predict the future. I think that we all should live in the moment, setting our future, and leaving our past where it belongs... in the past!

Carpe Diem!
