“I choose to learn this lesson so i don’t have to carry it anymore.”

Breathe. Dream. Grow. Your soul knows true hearts must be bold.

Be still. There are things worth listening for.

Thankful for the rose grateful for its thorns these lessons bloom like weeds from them I am reborn.

When my world grows dark I remember: Every light begins with a spark.

I am a island – I am an island so large that though I live here, I know it not.

The moment I am sure that I know is also the moment I cease to grow.

I beg my heart to ask- why not me? A woman and a leader. A writer and a healer.

Let the weight fall all there is to do is be here at all.

I wonder how deep true love can go when you water it daily and let it grow.

My desire for connection is stronger than my desire for perfection.

My heart beats for me, always has, but it waits for you.

The present is a present. Do you open it – or just wish it locked different?

Whatever the weather- the rain, snow or whatever we weather it together.

It is my job to be free – who else’s could it be?

No need to erase no need to explain. The beauty is in the change.

It is just as they said it would be great, and terrible, and on occasion, terribly great. (life)

I am always doing what I cannot do yet, in order to learn how to do it.

I’m learning how to drown out the constant noise that is such an inseparable part of my life. I don’t have to prove anything to anyone, I only have to follow my heart and concentrate on what I want to say to the world. I run my world.

Learn how to be happy with what you have while you pursue all that you want.

When I was little, my mother was funny with me, and I started to be charming and funny for her, and I learned that by being entertaining, you make a connection with another person.

Learn from every mistake because every experience, encounter, and particularly your mistakes are there to teach you and force you into being more who you are.

If you don’t know, ask. You will be a fool for the moment, but a wise man for the rest of your life.

I learned so much from listening to people. And all I knew was, the only thing I had was honesty and openness.

The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.
