Quote for today--When you were a child, you didn't look for a purpose in everything you did. You didn't run across a field, sink your teeth into a juicy orange or jump high with a ball because it was good for you- you did it for the sheer, glorious fun of it. Release your inner child, take time to play in the park, laugh with friends, visit a fair, walk barefoot on a beach...just for the fun of it. If it makes you feel good, that is all the reason you need. Have fun! Love and Light

Quote for today--If an obstacle seems completely insurmountable, it's probably because you don't know all there is to know about it.

The faster and more confidently you walk right up to your troubles and face them, the sooner they will begin to get out of the way. Love and Light

Quote for today--Your first impression of any particular challenge is almost always bigger and more formidable than the challenge itself.

Getting face to face with trouble may not be all that pleasant, yet you'll be far better off than if you had turned and run away. The more willingly and eagerly you take on the challenge, the more manageable it becomes. Love and Light
