Life Happens: At Times
Sometimes life just happens showing its effect on maturing children, aging parents, (and ourselves), instilling the realization that time is precious. At other times, one makes life happen by opening oneself to new people, new places and new endeavors with the potential for success or failure. Over a year ago, when I began work on The Cass Clutch, I knew I had to see this project through despite being unfamiliar with the leather industry, the manufacturing process and being a bit fearful of the unknown. I put myself out there and now it's finally here and, although still a bit afraid, I am now determined. Grateful for what the entire experience has taught me and no matter what becomes of it, I now know that I will be a better woman for having seen it through.
Don't let your dreams fall by the wayside. Make life happen, even if it scares you...
Meditation: 5 Inspiring Quotes
For a long time I resisted pinning inspirational quotes on Pinterest, but at some point I came across a quote that resonated with me and I decided to start a meditation pinboard. From time to time I read through it and somehow I manage to find sayings that reflect how I'm feeling at that particular moment. Today I'd like to share a few of my favorite ones. They all encourage authenticity, courage and self love.
Do you have any favorite motivational quotes to share?
