A little reminder.....

Sometimes we need to look a little deeper, think a little longer and live a little more!!

AHA, finding it.....

At some point in our lives we have all looked for signs; signs on whether we have made the correct choice? signs on whether we can do the job? signs on whether this is it.....

Our search for some divine intervention for that little bit of courage to push on is endless. 

This morning i stumbled onto this picture and it resonate that "This is it", sometimes we cannot see the signs because we are too strung up in the actions or have a preconceived notion of what the sign should be. 

Unfortunately these signs may never come in the ways we want them to, so don't spend all of your time looking for signs that might be right in-front of you; live your life, learn new things, love even when it hurts and soldier on. 

If it ends up being the wrong road start over and consider the past lessons and stepping stones to greater things, this is it afterall. 

Today i see

I usually don’t read forwarded messages because somewhere close to the end it always says something about passing it on or you will have years and years of bad luck and the suspicious side of me hates tempting fate that way.

However this morning I received a very interesting forwarded messages from a friend about a blind boy who sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet.  

He held up a sign which said: "I am blind, please help."  

There were only a few coins in the hat and as a man was walking by, He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the  sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.

Soon the hat began to fill up.  A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy.

Later that afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were going with the boy and the boy recognized his footsteps and asked, "Were you the one who changed my sign this morning?  

What did you write?" 

The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way."

I wrote: "Today is a beautiful day but I cannot see it." 

Both signs told people that the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind while the second sign told people that they were so lucky that they were not blind.

Moral of the Story:  Be thankful for what you have.  Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively because when life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. 

Face your past without regret and handle your present with confidence while preparing for the future without fear, because it holds nothing that God cannot help you through.  

Take time to remember that the most beautiful thing in the world is to see a person smile and knowing that you are the reason behind it in some little way.

Life is indeed a gift.....

Women

Never underestimate a women

We may not all look alike;  

some of us have legs that go on for days and Hips that tell their own story. 

We are filled with different colours and decades of life experience  

but do not be fooled by our grace for our strength is beyond your imagination.

We smile through tears, 

we laugh through heartache and we embrace grieving as the path to healing.

We wear our hearts on our sleeves 

and because we are so special God saw us fit to carry his greatest gift in our wombs. 

We are blessed to bring life into this world and spend our entire lives protecting, nurturing and learning

Unlike any man will ever do we have fought for equality of race, gender and opportunity in heels and with our dignity intact.

We are not defined by the clothes on our back or the language we speak. 

We are defined by what is inside

For in us you find courage , grace and strength. 

So regardless of what you are told in this life, as women we do indeed rule our world. 

Happy International Women's Day 

Someone like You - Adele

I love this song.

Reminds me of life, love and new chapters. 

Roads not taken and journeys we encounter on the ones we do take. 

And jeez can this women sing, love it!!

My quote for the day

“Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinion drown your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

– Steve Jobs

A bit of a reminder that we all have the power to do great things and that today is the best day to get started on what you truly want to become.
