Yes & sometimes they may be baby steps but it's all progress.

And sometimes our baby steps involve patiently holding our dose while we allow our bodies to heal enough to continue, and that's okay too.  As long as we keep moving forward, we know that someday it will be over.

In life, you will realise there is a role for everyone you meet.  Some will test you, some will use you, some will love you, and some will teach you.  But the ones who are truly important are the ones who BRING OUT THE BEST in you.  They are the rare and amazing people who remind you why it's worth it.

"That's the worst...or the best...of real life, Anne.  It won't let you be miserable.  It keeps on trying to make you comfortable...and succeeding...even when you are determined to be unhappy and romantic." - Miss Lavender Lewis from the novel Anne of Avonlea

[Guest [St...]]

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

 

As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.

 

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

 

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.

 

Take kindly to the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

 

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

 

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.

 

With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.

 

Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

 

Max Ehrmann c.1920

Happiness comes from recognising that the greatest loss in life is actually what we allow to die within us while we live - not death itself.

Today may there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us."
