keep what is worth keeping, and then,
with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.

LOVE LETTERS TO YOURSELF
This is taken from a love letter (a gentle reminder)
I wrote to myself recently.
Live in your joy today.
Be authentic. Love yourself. First.
Love others from your own abundance.

of being into new circumstances
rather than becoming new yourself.
Embrace transformation as an opportunity.
And keep on writing love letters to yourself.

your life won't work,
but if you keep tilting at windmills -
madly trying the same thing again and again,
your life also won't work.

not necessarily those who agree with you,
but those who respect your right to your point of view.
