Mother Stuff

I think that this week,
leading up the Mother's Day,
I will dedicate my blogs
to all you Mothers out there,
whether it be your own,
someone else's, or fur babies.

A mom is a mom is a mom.

This gem is from Mother Theresa ...

You will teach them to fly,

but they will not fly your flight.

You will teach them to dream,

but they will not dream your dream.

You will teach them to live,

but they will not live your life.

Nevertheless,

in every flight,

in every life,

in every dream,

the print of the way you taught

will always remain.

Dogs

A little Saturday silly for ya
(although it is the truth!) ...

I don't care

what anyone thinks

of me ...

except dogs ...

I want dogs

to like me.

Winds

Well this was kind of a 'wow' moment.
Love this little quip.

When the winds of change blow,

some people build walls,

others build windmills.

There is nothing political

about this post.

It is just the opening

of an opportunity

to see things

(all kinds of things)

from a different perspective.

Forward

As usual ...

I found this,

embellished,

and made it mine.

Enjoy ...

You may be changed

by things

that have happened to you,

by people

that have interacted with you,

by time

that has crept by like a snail in molasses,

or sped by in the flap of a hummingbird wing.

Never allow yourself

to be reduced,

to be marginalized,

to be minimalized.

Use the negatives

to grow,

to become stronger,

to gain wisdom,

to think.

Use the positives

to praise,

to pass it along,

to build on,

to begin again.

Forward ...

always forward.

Simple Things

From one Miss Mary Davis:

May the joy

of simple things

color the canvas

of your soul.

Sometimes,

it is the singular,

simple statement

that creates

the biggest impact.

Go do

what makes

your heart happy.

Rest

I do believe I've posted this before.
I'm pretty sure I'm re-telling myself,
but perhaps someone else needs to hear this, too.

If you get tired,

learn to rest,

not to quit.

JOMO

Joy Of Missing Out!

Feeling content with

staying in,

self care,

disconnecting,

self love,

thinking for yourself,

self indulgence,

unplugging,

recharging,

simply existing,

breathing.
