Words for the new Year.....

                                         

Loneliness can be a deep, vast sea to those who have no one waiting for them on shore. Open your heart to someone you know is floating in a sea of despair, their head barely above the waterline. Stop in for a visit, jot them an email, or give them a call. The fact that someone cares might be enough to give them the fortitude they need to start paddling. ~ by Sandra Kring 

No one can dictate what attitude you will wear today. If you meet someone whose intent is to put you down, remember it is you who wears the crown. - by Dodinsky 

"Many confuse forgiveness with acceptance. When we forgive someone we are NOT accepting a particular behaviour. We are simply loving OURSELVES enough to move on and grow in a healthy, positive direction. I prefer to call it detachment. Once we are in a healthy place, we can decide if someone should be in our lives or not. Detachment is indeed a challenge, but a most powerful lesson to learn."

~ Eric Allen

Life is much too short to pay mind to your fears.
Be who you are and live for your love.
It's the only way to be happy.
- Dorothy Mendoza Row

Don't you dare, for one more second, surround yourself with people who are not aware of the greatness that you are. -Jo Blackwell Preston

“When you are truly genuine, there will invariably be people who do not accept you. And in that case, you must be your own badass self, without apology.”

― Katie Goodman

"Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn't you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are."

~ Rachel Naomi Remen

A positive state of mind is not merely good for you,
it benefits everyone with whom you come into contact,
literally changing the world. - The Dalai Lama

Remember, all the answers you need are inside of you; you only have to become quiet enough to hear them. ― Debbie Ford

A positive state of mind is not merely good for you,
it benefits everyone with whom you come into contact,
literally changing the world. - The Dalai Lama

‎"Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star and melting like a snowflake."

Get angry, get furious-- but never crumble into resentment. Invest and transform that energy into finding the substance of your individuality. The best response against people who have done you wrong is to LIVE and PROSPER. ~ by Dodinsky (www.dodinsky.com)
