Quote of the day – Mandy Hale

β€œAllow yourself
to hope,
to believe, and
to trust again.
Don’t let a few
bad memories
stop you from having
a good life now.”

To be able to see – Aziz Gattoufi

I choose and select the eyes looking at me and hope and wish they are not bad eyes that will make my plans fall. Instead, please God surround me with eyes of gratefulness and make my eyes see the invisible truth of the heart and of you.

Quote of the day – Brene Brown

β€œMost of us are
trying to live
an authentic life.
Deep down,
we want to take off
our game face
and be real
and imperfect.”

Paradigm shift – Shante

Awakening of the new beginnings
An evolution to new things and era
An end to old existence, ceased operations
No sustainability involved
An attitude, to move from one comfort zone to other new possibilities and opportunities
A spectrum of nothing last forever
Things keep changing, change is inevitable in this everlasting world
Be aware, ready to change, step up and move foreward
Shante [050521]

Poem by Rainer Maria Rilke

Be patient towards it all
that is unresolved in your heart
and try to love the questions,
that are similar to locked rooms
and to books written in a foreign language.
Don’t look for answers now
because you wouldn’t be able to live with them.
And the point is to live everything.
Living the questions now.
Maybe it will be given to you, without you noticing,
of living to the far day
in which you will get the answer.

(Rainer Maria Rilke)

β€œI don’t know if the grass
is greener on the other side
but it feels good to touch
the green green grass of home.”

Lovely poem by a 13-year old

β€œLife can be a competition.
You either win or lose,
the winning game is not for everybody,
neither is the losing game. Progress or remain stagnant. Suicide is a weakness.
The villain to life.
There are more goals to achieve in the future.
It’s all up to you!
Ruth

Quote of the day – Audre Lorde

β€œIt is not our differences
that divide us.
It is our inability to
recognise, accept
and celebrate
those differences.”
