A New Beginning

I have decided that I am going to use this space as a way for me to try and focus on the things I am grateful for, the goals I have and my hopes that everyone can benefit from my perspective. I will start each writing with a quote and then I will reach into the meanings of the quote, at least as it pertains to my life and see if maybe I can start a different train of thought for those who may be needing a little light shone into their darkness.

Today's quote: "Remember that today you can not only make a difference in your own life but in the life of others. Stay positive and true to yourself, you never know when you're making a memory" Unknown Author


This quote speaks to me about the little things in life. Those moments when we think no one is watching or listening to us, the little spans of time when we see someone who could use a hand, a hug or even just a smile. Sometimes, the smallest of gestures can make the biggest impact on someone's life and in those moments of giving, we receive gifts that nurture our own souls and enrich our own lives. It can take but a moment to change someone forever, to change ourselves forever and I think that we should all take those moments and let them enhance the people we already are. There is never a downside to becoming a better, healthier, more well adjusted and giving person. There is only an upside. When we choose to  want to love and care for people, to give back what we have been given and to share in our happiness, there is a greater sense of fulfillment and completeness that steals over us and gives us peace. It is a win/win situation. Love brings about love, happiness brings about happiness and peace brings about peace. this is the way of the universe as like is attracted to like. I hope everyone reading this can take this quote for the day and use it to find that sweet balance in their own lives. May you all be blessed and enriched today. 


Namaste

  1. I agree...the little things make the biggest impact most of the time. That's why I always try to be conscious of the way I treat others. I always try to be polite and respectful to people I haven't gotten to know yet and make sure they are aware that they have made a small difference in my life. Like attracts like...so so true my love.
