Today is the Beginning

I’ve learned that
No matter what has happened or hasn’t happened to you in your life
No matter how heartbreaking
No matter what you lost
No matter who deceived you
No matter what dreams were broken
No matter the what wrong decisions you made, what opportunities you passed up, what regrets you may have
No matter how devastating the circumstances
No matter how long you have suffered
No matter how old you are
Today is the beginning
Today is the day to finally change it all
Life has only one direction
Who you are is worth it all
So what are you going to do with today?
“What has been in your life up till now has nothing to do with what still can be”

Build Your Own Building

“You know, I used to think the future was solid or fixed, something you inherited like an old building that you move into when the previous generation moves out or gets chased out. But it’s not. The future is not fixed; it’s fluid. You can build your own building, or hut or condo…the world is more malleable than you think and it’s waiting for you to hammer it into shape.”

Bono

Consistently…

“If we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions.  It’s not what we do once in awhile that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently”  Tony Robbins

I wish to Change My Life, So Please Change Me

 If love is not in your life, it’s on the way…prepare.

 The love you pray for is trying to reach you at every moment. 

“Please heal my romantic wounds that I might give and receive true love.  Teach me how to let love in and lit it stay. Remove from my mind all judgment and from my heart all fear.  Release the chains that bind me.  Help me not to miss my own life.  Do not allow me to escape my good.  Soften my heart”

 May I begin again?

I wish to change my life, so please change me. 

 Excerpts from Enchanted Love, Marianne Williamson

The Silence Within

We have to believe this to make sense of the detours:

Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself,
and know that everything in life has purpose.
There are no mistakes, no coincidences,
all events are blessings given to us to learn from.
– Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Life is a School

Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn.  Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like Algebra class.  But the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

Gratitude

“When you allow yourself to feel gratitude in the present moment, in the now, what I promise you is that the spiritual dimension of your life begins to change.  It opens up, it expands and you just grow with it. That is the truth if I ever spoke the truth in my life.  If you want to change your state of being, start to be grateful”  Oprah Winfrey from her Lifeclass

A Time of Blossoming

“Trust that there is life, hope and renewal even when it appears there is not.  Hold onto the vision of what can be…even when nothing seems to be presenting itself to you.  There is a time of blossoming that is mysterious.  Your future is waiting, a work already in progress.  Each step forward invites cosmic forces and unexpected miracles into your life”  Kathy Freston

The Greatest Gifts

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY MOM

“The greatest gifts you can give your children are roots of responsibility and wings of independence”  Denis Waitley

“It is not what you do for your children but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful human beings”  Ann Landers
