Along with the certificate I just received from my workshop, my teacher gave each one of us the following and I wanted to share it with you. Words to live by.
Believe in your heart
That something wonderful is about to happen
Love your life!
Believe in your own power.
And in your potential.
And in your own innate goodness.
Discover in each new day
The magnificent awesome
Beauty of the world!
Wake up every morning
With the awe of just being alive.
Reach within to find
Your own specialness
Amaze yourself with the potential
Of each new day!
Let those who love you help you
Trust enough to be able to take.
Look with hope to the horizon
And live this day well.
Let a little sun out as well as in
Create your own rainbows
Be open to all your possibilities
And all your dreams.

Let those who love you help you
Trust enough to be able to take.

I'm glad I posted it at a time that you could value it. It makes the last stanza make sense. "Let a little sunshine out".

That is just beautiful and it makes me think too as its so hard now for me to let someone help me as I have always prided myself on being fit and able to take care of myself when I was seveny nine then I fell. broke my shoulder so badly I had to become a bionic woman with a shoulder joint of metal and plasic. so I lost a lot of use of my left arm which made me have to rely on other people at times to help me. Let those who love you help you.what a phrase. the whole poem reminds me of something my husband used to tell me, I am unique. I am somebody. I love myself so then I can love you. create your own rainbows. this is a good poem to live by.

I'm so glad you liked it. So sorry to hear about your arm though. That must be difficult. I like the part also about letting sunshine out as well as in.

i have heard somethign simular to this all of my life and what i have always heard is that if you go with your heart you really can't ever go wrong because it is what you wanted to do at the time...and i think that i would defiently have to agree with that because as long as you do what you want to do...then you won't ever be dissapointed in anyhting that you try in t your life and may not succeed at because you wanted it and did it...

I agree with you completely, if you go with your heart, you'll be happy in all you do. Thats pretty simple.
