CHANGE ALWAYS COMES BEARING GIFTS.




GRATITUDE MAKE SENSE OF THE PAST,
BRINGS PEACE FOR TODAY,
AND CREATES VISION FOR TOMORROW.


TRUST IN GOD,
HIS PLANS ARE BIGGER THAN THE ONES YOU HAVE FOR YOURSELF.


IT'S NOT WHAT YOU SAY OUT OF YOUR MOUTH THAT DETERMINES YOUR LIFE, IT'S WHAT YOU WHISPER TO YOURSELF THAT HAS THE MOST POWER.


WHEN YOU DO THE RIGHT THINGS IN THE RIGHT WAY,
YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR.


DON'T BURN OPPORTUNITIES FOR TEMPRORY COMFORT.



CREATE THE HABIT OF GRATITUDE AND WATCH YOUR LIFE TRANSFORM.


SOMETIMES THE HARDEST THING AND THE RIGHT ARE THE SAME THING.


THE MORE ROOM YOU GIVE YOURSELF TO EXPRESS YOUR TRUE THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS, THE MORE ROOM THERE IS FOR YOUR WISDOM TO EMERGE.

Sting - Fragile (Official Music Video)

AS A CHILD I WAS NOT SPOLIED WITH TOYS. WE WERE FOUR KIDS SO I HAD TO BE CREATIVE. I MADE MY OWN PAPER DOLLS CUT FROM MAGAZINES. I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE THESE PRINTS, BUT CREATING MY OWN WAS ALSO FUN.

Here's a dozen of my favorite things never to apologize for:


1) Never apologize for acting on your instincts.
2) Never apologize for being passionate.
3) Never apologize for being smart.
4) Never apologize for demanding respect.
5) Never apologize for saying no.
6) Never apologize for not embracing someone else's agenda.
7) Never apologize for disagreeing.
8) Never apologize for your faith.
9) Never apologize for your own sense of creativity.
10) Never apologize for ordering dessert.
11) Never apologize for being funny.
12) Never apologize for living your truth.


Every one of us casts a shadow.

There hangs about us, a sort of a strange, indefinable something, which we call personal influence--that has its effect on every other life on which it falls. It goes with us wherever we go. It is not something we can have when we want to have it--and then lay aside when we will, as we lay aside a garment. It is something that always pours out from our lives . . . as light from a lamp, as heat from flame, as perfume from a flower.

The ministry of personal influence is something very wonderful. Without being conscious of it, we are always impressing others by this strange power that exudes from us. Others watch us--and their thinking and actions are modified by our influence."

"Be very careful, then, how you live--not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity." Ephesians 5:15-16
