BTR

Good morning, friends!
Here's hoping that you 

realize how amazing you are today ...

Be the reason 

someone believes

in kindness,

in humanity,

in decency,

in grace,

in love,

in the goodness

of God.

One Little Sentence

Saw this.
Saved it.
Sharing.

It is one of those

incredibly universal truths.

Forgive yourself

for not knowing earlier

what only time could teach.

Be gentle with yourself.

You are a work of heart.

Value

This came across my vista on multiple occasions recently.
Usually, that's a sign that I am to share.

So ...

When you realize

that each day

is not one more day,

it's one less,

you will start giving

more value

to the things

that truly matter.

So appropriate for this day ~

and always ...

Candles ...

As my heart strings are being pulled
by a few friends who are struggling with loss
and every other person
who just needs a little more light ...

Let's light a candle ...

not just in a season,

but for the ones

who should've been,

who should still be;

the voices we still hear

within our hearts;

the empty chairs around tables

that feel too quiet;

the memories that never fade

and often illuminate the way ...

Power

A classic, but a fave ...

You've always

had the power,

my dear ...

you just 

had to learn it

for yourself.

Make the day yours.

Make it magical.

Stop

This is not a bad thing.
It is a true thing
and something
many of us need to learn ...
including me.

Stop

expecting you

from

other people.

Light up your Wednesday

This is a little Mother Teresa tidbit.
Can't go wrong there ...

Go out

into the world today

and love

the people you meet.

Let your presence

light new light

in the hearts of others.

You don't need to inquire

as to their social stances,

political propensities,

or basic beliefs.

Just love them and leave them

better than you found them.
