Believe in Yourself Even When You Think No One Else Does!

The most important times in our lives to be strong, and stand up for what is right is when you may be the only one aware of it.  Trust your instincts, don't doubt what you are capable of and don't let anyone take away your goals and abilities, they are yours and yours only.  

Accomplish them, you can do anything you set your mind on and you can even be a kind person along the way.  Don't let others negativity become a toxin it is contagious just like love, laughter and happiness that is just as easily spread.  Enjoy life, we only get one.  Xox. :-)

This will make sense as you read the next section below...I promise!  :-)

This all just came to me a few minutes ago.  Earlier I was sitting around sortof feeling glum today.  I try so hard to focus on the positive, that sometimes when the negative things build up it comes all at once and becomes like a heavy weight that I am stuck under for a little bit.  Then I had a call from a special friend I have known since childhood.  Helping me realize we all go through stuff, we all have our own baggage.  But how we all carry it (our stuff) is what in the end defines if we lived a happy fulfilling, epic life or not.  I am choosing to live my life to the best of my abilities, being the best mom to my boys, which means to just not talk the talk, but walk the walk.  So glad I was put on this Earth not to be perfect, this road is definitely not bump free, especially the paths I choose (just like the quilt patterns...lol), but I will find my way and be dancing and smiling as I get there!  :-)

PS...you may also enjoy this blog post I wrote about a month ago called the "Challenge of Change".  It isn't an automatic thing, it is a daily choice we make, I am proof of that.

  1. Agreed ;-) We can spend our time letting the bad things win or we can make our lives worth living. Not only for ourselves but for those around us.

  2. You got it, girlfriend! We can't let the things others say get us down. And we should be building each other up! We quilty people should support each other. That is why I am glad to have found the Google+ Quilting community. Cause it's an otherwise lonely place out here in the middle of the real world...

    1. I couldn't agree with you more Lorna that it has been a great group to be part of and it is so nice when I see others lifting others up! I do go back ever so often and read a few of my posts to remind myself and get the extra boost I need to always try my best to move forward =)
