"You can be vulnerable and still be powerful.
You can have a gentle heart and still be rock solid at your core.
You can be calm as a breeze but fierce as a tiger.
The best people embody both sides."

We had to say goodbye to our 12-year-old pup Eliot, quite unexpectedly this morning. From the best the vet can surmize, he had likely been living with cancer for some time. He was a sweet, smart, quirky thing who would often show that same intelligence by coming to rub up against me and then thumping his tail furiously when asked, "Do you need something?" Only once one gave the right answer (food, outside, etc.) would he bolt for wherever that coveted thing was or was supposed to be. Please, tell me about those that touched your life.

The sky would be awfully dark with only one star."

Each if us have something to celebrate based on our talents. Each of us have means to make others smile with a simple compliment or even a smile in of itself towards another. lifting another up creates a bond towards a more pure togetherness that only a few of us have experienced. The more that experience this the more closer we all become

"Some of the kindest souls I know have lived in a world that was not so kind to them. Some of the best human beings I know have been through so much at the hands of others, and they still love deeply, they still care. Sometimes, it's the people who have been hurt the most that refuse to be hardened by this world because they never want another person to feel the same way that they have felt. If that's not something to be in awe of, I don't know what is."

It is verrry interesting how complex we are as individuals and the choices we make based on our circumstances that occur in our lives. If we chose to rise above then we are automatically in a better place. If we chose to simmer within the turmoil then we are of no use to anyone including ourselves. * anything we say or do comes with an end result.
what end result do we want?

We can all use a reminder now and again that there is good to be found in this world. It says something that despite how you may sometimes feel, you are able to acknowledge yours.

Agreed, hence the lack of intimidation. -
"Be the person who breaks the cycle.
If you were judged, choose understanding.
If you were rejected, choose acceptance.
If you were shamed, choose compassion.
Be the person you needed when you were hurting, not the person who hurt you.
Vow to be better than what broke you, to heal instead of becoming bitter -
so you can act from your heart, not your pain." - Lori Deschaine

"Ah, kindness.
What a simple way to tell another struggling soul that there is love to be found in this world."

What music are you currently listening to?

"To everyone who is trying right now -
Trying to do the right thing
Trying to stay open
Trying to keep going
Trying to hold on
Trying to let go.
Trying to find their flow
Trying to stay afloat
Trying to meet each new day
Trying to find their balance
Trying new things and new ways
Trying to love themselves.
I see you. I'm there too. We're in this together." --- S. C. Laurie
