Soulful Sunday

“If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you 

develop the habit in little matters. Excellence is not an 

exception, it is a prevailing attitude.”–Charles R. Swindoll

“Sunday is the golden clasp that binds together the volume of the week.”

― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

"Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.”–Arnold Schwarzenegger

“With everything that has happened to you, 
you can either feel sorry for yourself 
or treat what has happened as a gift.
Everything is either an opportunity to grow
or an obstacle to keep you from growing.
You get to choose.”
~Wayne W. Dyer

“Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower;
We will grieve not, rather find
Strength in what remains behind;
In the primal sympathy
Which having been must ever be...”

― William Wordsworth

"The Soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had no tears."

~ Native American Proverb

Tears are a sacred cleansing, allowing us to open deeper, revealing the gift within ♥

In one of the stars I shall be living

In one of them I shall be laughing

And so it shall be as if all the stars were laughing

when you look a the night sky.

“Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.”

Would love to see this movie.

I love Morgan Freeman and suspense filled movies....................


Weekend Weekend Cha Cha Cha

It's a long weekend here in Canada

There's a colour for the thing that everyone wants most.  Maybe it's ruby, as in slippers and three clicks and the feeling there is no place like it.  It's the colour of the heart's deepest desires: to be where you truly belong, and it is everything that matters.  There is a deep, rich, enduring colour.  It's the colour of being gone a little too long, then finally coming home.

Whatever you want to bring into your life, you must GIVE it. 

Do you want love? Then give it. Do you want appreciation? 

Then give it. Do you want understanding?Then give it. Do 

you want joy and happiness? Then give it to others.

You have the ability to give so much love, 

appreciation,

understanding, and happiness to so many people every 

single day! - Rhonda Byrne from #TheSecret Daily Teachings

To be rich in admiration and free from envy, to rejoice greatly in the good of others, to love with such generosity of heart that your love is still a dear possession in absence or unkindness - these are the gifts which money cannot buy.~Robert Louis Stevenson

So Proud of you Chantelle

So proud of you Chantelle..............

You are setting the world on fire and now in Seoul too

We all take different paths in life no matter where we go

We take a little bit of each other everywhere.

So very proud of you and all of your accomplishments.

Go forward in the direction of your dreams.

Live the life you have imagined.

Thoreau

A New Week Begins

≈♥≈☼≈♥≈☼≈♥≈☼≈♥
All that is eternal in me
Welcomes the wonder of this day,
The field of brightness it creates
Offering time for each thing
To arise and illuminate.
~ John O'Donohue ~

Has anyone seen that gorgeous Super Moon in the night sky?

Amazing

We are hoping to catch the fireworks in the distance from our balcony tonight on the Detroit River.

With any luck we will be able to catch some glimpses and enjoy.

Have a fabulous Monday.

Staying indoors as it is very hot and humid outside.

I do much better in central air.

Smiles

I go for my walks very very very early in the mornings.

While it is still cool outside.

I love beautiful umbrellas from Asia...............

Always always always say something nice.

May the Universe grant me

The power of water to accept with ease and grace that which

I cannot change

The power of fire to change with energy and courage those things which  I can

The power of air to know

with intuition and wisdom which is which 

The power of Earth to continue with strength

and steadfastness on my journey

I love John Legend

I love this song so very much

´´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

The child whispered, "God, speak to me"
And a meadow lark sang.
The child did not hear.

So the child yelled, "God, speak to me!"
And the thunder rolled across the sky
But the child did not listen.

The child looked around and said,
"God let me see you" and a star shone brightly
But the child did not notice

And the child shouted,
"God show me a miracle!"
And a life was born but the child did not know.

So the child cried out in despair,
"Touch me God, and let me know you are here!"
Whereupon God reached down
And touched the child.
But the child brushed the butterfly away
And walked away unknowingly.
