To all my friends I wish a great start this year and I hope it will only get better and better every day.
One thing about me is that I love quotations I find when I explore the amazing world of books. I write many of them in a diary and use them to inspire me. At times, few clever words can make a difference. So I thought I’d share some with you here, to inspire you too. I hope you like them as much as I do:
“Life is beautiful, as long as it consumes you. When it is rushing through you, destroying you, life is gorgeous, glorious. It’s when you burn a slow fire and save fuel that life’s not worth having.”
D. H. Lawrence

“So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life’s a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about.”
Marilyn Monroe

“If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present.”
Lao Tzu

“Dwell on the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.”
Marcus Aurelius

Happy New Year to you, all my love, Carmen

Have you ever wondered why people show up in our lives when we need them the most? It is destiny someone will say, or it was meant to happen. One way or the other, they will bring healing. They will sparkle your imagination, and they will give you wings to fly higher than the sky. Maybe your heart is hurting, or you need a friendly shoulder to rest your forehead. That special person will open the locked gates of your soul and help you rose from your ashes. The mere fact that you know someone is on the other side waiting for you, cheering for you or crying with you, it will alter the course of your life.

Let’s cheer for the special persons in our lives!
