“Not everything is meant to be taken so seriously. Regardless of what happens, tomorrow is a new day. The sun will rise once again. So smile a little bigger. Laugh a little harder. Take such things in your life, acknowledge them, and shrug them off with a carefree spirit.”

When your head hits the pillow tonight, remind yourself that you’ve done a good job. You are headed down your path at your own pace, and with every obstacle you are trying your utmost best. Be patient with yourself, and remember that big things are achieved not all at once, but one day at a time.

“Control your thoughts, and you will be able to control the way in which the world appears. Think highly of events; if it’s good, see it’s beauty. If it’s bad, seek for growth. Everything that happens has a reason, purpose, and difference that it will make. So take a moment, and choose to see the impact that your thoughts have on your life.”

“People need to be encouraged. People need to be reminded of how wonderful they are. People need to be believed in - told that they are brave and smart and capable of accomplishing all the dreams they dream, and more. Remind each other of this.”

“Don’t take things so seriously to the point where you’ve lost all enjoyment for the things you used to love. Life is so short; you must allow yourself to feel.”

To love another must not sacrifice the love for yourself. Inside, you too must remain whole. You must continue to support yourself even as you support another. And in turn, the love you receive should help lift you up, hold you secure, and accept you for all that you are.

Sometimes our minds need a spring cleaning too. To dust away the cobwebs, dump old thoughts, and throw away things that no longer serve you. It’s time for remodelling of the mind. It’s time to make room for the new. It’s time to become rejuvenated.
