You have dealt with so much…

Today I Will Do My Best

Today I will do my best. If I have a good day, I will be proud of myself. If I have a bad day, I will not dwell on it, I will forgive myself, I will put it behind me and I will continue to move forward.

Please Don’t Expect Me

Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand. -Sylvia Plath

Ordinary love…

I can’t fight you anymore
It’s you I’m fighting for
The sea throws rocks together
But time leaves us polished stones

We can’t fall any further
If we can’t feel ordinary love
And we cannot reach any higher
If we can’t deal with ordinary love

sunrise quote

Tara LeMieux writes:

I watched the sun rise today – a distant dawn hinting of lavender and faded peonies; while far off trees marked bold contrast between the waning night and this glorious new day.

via Mindfully Musing – The Magic of Dawn..

It reminded me of a special sunrise I saw a week ago today and I merged her quote with my image above. Thank you, Tara…

Every Positive Thought is a Silent Prayer

The dramatics are often unbelievably soft

In truth, the dramatics of a life-determining experience are often unbelievably soft. It has so little akin to the bang, the flash, or the volcanic eruption that, at the moment it is made, the experience is often not even noticed. When it deploys its revolutionary effect and plunges a life into a brand-new light giving it a brand-new melody, it does that silently and in this wonderful silence resides its special nobility.

Masters of Habit: Lessons, Quotes from Marcus Aurelius

Good stuff from Psychology Today…

On dealing with criticism… 

You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.

You don’t have to turn this into something. It doesn’t have to upset you. Things can’t shape our decisions by themselves.

I have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men, but yet sets less value on his own opinion of himself than on the opinion of others.
