Be Who You Are Because...

“Be who you are 
and say what you feel, 
because 
those who mind don’t matter
and 
those who matter don’t mind.”

Being Happy in the Present Moment!



Try to be happy in this present moment, 
and put not off being so to a time to come, 
as though that time should be of another make from this which has already come and is ours.
~Thomas Fuller

if no birds sang there 
except those that sang best.”

Beauty is all around you!



Slow down and see what's on your side of the fence.
  
Maybe other's wish they had your experience 


as much as you wish you had theirs.

Affect the quality of your day!



"It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, 
or to carve a statue, 
and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium 
through which we look, which morally we can do. 
To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts."

~ Henry David Thoreau

Point of View...

Find Peace...wherever you are!



But I try to steal other moments. 

Sometimes I get up very early in the morning and enjoy a quiet house and 

cup of tea before the craziness 

begins. 

Other times, I'll take a quick walk on the beach. 

You can find peace in a few minutes. 

~Cindy Crawford

SUCCESS!

Success is full of promise till one gets it, 
and then it seems like a nest 
from which the bird 
has flown.

not from always being right 
but from not fearing 
to be wrong.
