Follow your heart and keep your peace. Say 'no' when you need to and 'yes' when you should.

The most important words in all languages are the small words: GOD. LOVE. YES.
They are words that are easy enough to say and which will fill vast empty spaces.

Early morning
Nature long awake spreading its glow over silent earth,
waiting
Birds singing their morning chorus
Silence
Icy air crackles
Donkeys continue to graze peacefully
the human watches
warm breath forming a white cloud in the morning air
Welcoming the human to this world of perfection
This is life.

If we never take a chance, we will never make progress, and progress always requires stepping into the unknown. Experience gives us confidence, but we never gain confidence unless we step out and try things we have not tried before.

I had the privilege to meet this 2 month old Loggerhead turtle yesterday. An interesting fact is that the hatchlings that are attacked and survive during their mad dash to the ocean, are the ones most likely to reach adulthood and old age. There are many turtles with only 3 flippers living good lives.
So here's a lesson from nature - Do not let your setbacks in life prevent you from living a fulfilling life. Stop focussing on what you don't have or on what went wrong in the past.
Be courageous and persevere and let your "missing flipper" be a reminder that good things can come from difficult circumstances.
Develop a Loggerhead attitude!

It's important to learn to like yourself, because no matter how far or how fast you run, you cannot run away from YOU.

There are no words to describe what it does to the soul to stand with a donkey for a while, allowing a healing energy exchange to take place and feel your spirits lifting. When a donkey comes to stand and share with you, they make you feel like you are the only person in the world that matters, and in today’s time of rushing and living such impersonal lives, that is a truly special experience.

Never give up hope, sometimes you just need to turn around to see the open door where you least expected it.

The joy of doing even the simplest service for someone else so far surpasses the joy of doing something for yourself only. The smile on the other person's face is the greatest reward you can get.
