Patience visited

 Patience visited me
And it reminded me 
That good things take time to come to fruition
And grow slowly with stability 
Peace visited me 
And it reminded me 
That I may remain calm through the storms of life 
Regardless of the chaos surrounding me 
Hope visited me 
And it reminded me 
That better times lay ahead 
And it would always be there to guide and uplift me
Humility visited me 
And it reminded me 
That I may achieve it 
Not by trying to shrink myself and make myself less
But by focusing on serving the world and uplifting those around me
Kindness visited me
And it reminded me 
To be more gentle, forgiving and compassionate toward myself 
And those surrounding me
Confidence visited me
And it reminded me
To not conceal or suppress my gifts and talents 
In order to make others feel more comfortable 
But to embrace what makes me me 
Focus visited me
And it reminded me
That other people’s insecurities and judgements about me
Are not my problem 
And I should redirect my attention 
From others back to me 
Freedom visited me 
And it reminded me 
That no one has control over my mindset, thoughts and wellbeing 
But me
And love visited me 
And it reminded me 
That I need not search for it in others
As it lies within me.

Step by step to conquer

 know there’s days when you wake up and the whole world seems to be crashing down on your shoulders.

Close your eyes and take a deep breath.

You don’t have to have it all figured out or even know where the day will take you.

There’s always going to be those days that you can’t seem to get anything right and everything just piles up.

You don’t have to conquer it all at once.

Stop focusing on the whole weight of your world and take it one step at a time..

Baby steps, if you have to.

Every one of us is a mess sometimes, we all have moments where we just want to cry..

And if you need to, just let it out.

Tackle each thing, job and task one at a time and keep moving forward.

Some days, you’ll feel as though you can do anything and other days, you’ll put your keys in the refrigerator.

That’s just life- some good days, some bad days and the days that make you want to quit.

You’ll never be perfect, but the great thing is..you don’t have to be.

Don’t put unrealistic expectations on yourself and then let the worry of how you’ll get it all done stress you out.

Most importantly, stop being in a hurry all the time to do all the things and get everywhere super fast..

You’ll miss some of life’s greatest little moments if you’re zooming through trying to conquer life without stopping.

Never get too busy doing and forget to live along the way.

Do the things, get the jobs done, be efficient..

But more than that, notice the small things- the smell of a fresh morning dew, the beauty of the world around us, the laughter of small children playing.

That’s the stuff of memories that you’ll miss if you’re in a tizzy worrying about all the tasks and things to do.

Don’t neglect them- they’re important- but don’t neglect yourself, either.

Take the time to fill your heart and soul with the joy that replenish you with the good stuff.

So, yes, you’re going to be a mess some days, and sometimes, you’ll be figuring it out as you go..

Just keep moving forward and do what you can, how you can, when you can.

Most of all, don’t stop living and enjoying your life.

After all, what good is it to conquer the world if you don’t take the time to enjoy it along the way?

Each day is a new opportunity to start a new chapter.

Keep going..you’ll get where you need to be when you need to be there.

It just takes a little time, effort and patience sometimes.

You got this.

Love is the main purpose of life

Underneath all that you do, the main purpose of your life is to love: to both give love and receive it, by carrying and transmitting an energy of love and healing into every single interaction you have. For example, a cleaner is not just a cleaner; they are transforming the energy of a space. A builder is not just a builder; they are creating a foundation for dreams. And a teacher is not just a teacher; they are shaping the minds of the future.

Words by Tahlia Hunter

It is not naive to envision a better future,

It is not naive to envision a better future,
For time and time again throughout history,
Light has triumphed over darkness.
Good has succeeded over evil,
And love has conquered fear.
And the chronicles of history
Do not simply contain tales of tragedy 
But also ones of perseverance, bravery, kindness and love.
Words by Tahlia Hunter

Peace to my soul

 Give me the courage to face the challenges of my day, no matter how large or small.
May I never lose sight of the sunlight on the other side of the storms..
For that will always give me the strength, courage and perseverance to see things through.
Give me the passion to fill my spirit and move me to greater heights and more awareness.
May the things I pursue bring joy to my heart and peace to my soul, so that I will always have that fire burning inside me.
Give me the serenity to understand that my journey is as it is meant to be and nothing happens by chance.
People and things come into my life for a reason, for it’s up to me to figure out why..
To step back and understand the reasons, learn the lessons and appreciate the growth...
even though sometimes, things don’t go as I want them to.
But I’ll always what I need and where I’m meant to be.
This journey is mine and mine alone, though I’m blessed to have so many wonderful people walking this path beside me..
My people that love me just as I am and accept me for all my quirks, flaws and uniqueness.
That’s the love I tuck into my heart to carry me through the hard times- when I don’t think I can keep going but feel the love and find a way.
Maybe I’ll take some wrong turns, but they’re not really wrong..they’re just places I needed to go and people I had to meet to teach me who I was and what I’m capable of.
I know there will always be long nights and tears to cry, that’s just part of finding myself.
Every person, every broken heart, every situation has something to show me if I’m willing to open my eyes.
But every day is a blessing that I’m thankful to have and an opportunity to find the beauty in the moments, help someone in need, be kind to another soul.
There will never an obstacle I can’t overcome or a problem I can’t solve.
Most of all, what I know is this:
There’s always hope to inspire me, love to lift me up and strength to carry me through.
Every end is just a new beginning and with passion in my spirit and eyes lifted, I’ll find my way.
Maybe it’s not perfect, easy or ideal, but it’s my journey..
And taking one step after another, I can realize my dreams and follow the stars.
I can do anything, be anyone and become anything.
It all starts now, with me, and a little sprinkle of hope, dash of courage and a touch of belief.
That’s how I make today great.
