Hard times are often blessings in disguise.
Hard times are often blessings in disguise.
Let go and let life strengthen you.
No matter how much it hurts, hold your head up and keep going.
This is an important lesson to remember when you’re having a rough day,
a bad month, or a crappy year.
Truth be told, sometimes the hardest lessons to learn are the ones we
need the most.
Your past was never a mistake if you learned from it.
So take all the crazy experiences and lessons and place them in a box
labeled “Thank You.”

simmer for about 20 minutes. Toss in the basil and salt and cook for another 5
minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.

While the sauce simmers, cook your pasta.

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
