These Days........

"These days, my practice is teaching me to embrace imperfection; to have compassion for all the ways things haven't turned out as I planned, in my body and in  my life- for the ways things keep falling apart, and failing, and breaking down. It's less about fixing things, and more about learning to be present for exactly what is." ~Anne Cushman

A Buddhist Prayer of Forgiveness:

If I have harmed anyone in any way either knowingly or unknowingly
through my own confusions I ask their forgiveness.
If anyone has harmed me in any way either knowingly or unknowingly
through their own confusions I forgive them.
I forgive myself for that.
For all the ways that I harm myself, negate myself, doubt myself, belittle myself,
judge or be unkind to myself through my own confusions I forgive myself.

Adversity........

"Every adversity, every failure, and every heartache carries with it the seed of an equivalent or a greater benefit." ~Unknown

The Power of Your Angels

"Unless someone can look into the core of your heart, and see the degree of your passion, or look into the depths of your soul and see the extent of your will, then they have no business telling you what you can or cannot acieve. Because while they may know the odds, they do not know YOU. Nor do they know the power of your angels." ~Sandra Kring

To Be Really Loved.....

Someone who really loves you down to your toes will see what a mess you can be, how moody you can get and how hard you are to handle BUT still wants you in their life and can't imagine a day without you!

Never Let Someone Bring You Down

"When life kicks you in the ass, roll up your sleeves and kick it back. Never let someone bring you down when you’re up and never sink to a lower level to be something or someone you’re not. You never have to impress someone that you don’t like"…Unknown

The Worst

"When we face the worst that can happen in any situation, we grow. When circumstances are at their worst, we can find our best." ~Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
