Never stop Dreaming, Never Give Up Hope, Never Stop Believing..
No matter how hard things may seem to be on the surface, we must never let our trials & tribulations, struggles & obstacles prevent us from reaching our fullest potentials nor discourage us from losing hope.~Babz

Stop blaming and start being. Everything comes by being! Be the love you seek. Be the friend you seek. Be the lover you seek. Be the honesty you seek. Be the integrity you seek. Be the patience you seek. Be the tolerance you seek. Be the compassion you seek.

The Happiness Contagion
A smile is a beautiful expression, it is an act of life love that gains attention. Your smile is a infectious gifts, it puts compassion in hearts and makes spirits lift. ~ Harry, The Happiness Contagion

Beneath your burdensome regrets and who you think you are through the lens of past mistakes, there is someone beautiful who wants to emerge. You are not your mistakes, and your mistakes are not you. You are so much more than your mistakes. Allow your truth to emerge. Your truth cannot emerge buried under a mountain of guilt and regret. Your past is like a bag of bricks; set it down and walk away. Quit collecting every painful word, memory, and mistake. Collect hope. Hope is lighter!

— Bryant McGill

Life is amazing

I was away last week at a camp for people with disabilities. I loved it so much,the people there were amazing, they knew that everyone who was there have different abilities but we were all there to do something fun and push ourselves, if you saw what the schedule looked like you would think that this camp was for ”so called normal adults” we did things like water rafting, rock climbing and cycling. It was great, I did it all last summer as well. I love doing those kind of things it’s stuff that I didn’t think I would like doing but loved it!

The only people that deserve to be your LIFE are the ones who; trust you, inspire you, support you, motivate you, believe in you,encourage you, and truly love you for YOU.. ~Babz

Let love always find its way in your daily life.  Its so small and it is necessary for a life where you can always have happiness!

”Your life is always a perfect reflection of your state of heart and mind, and of your truest identity. There is a different world on the other side of your present attitude. You can only access the beautiful world through faith by truthfully embracing beauty and caring. Be open to others; give people a chance. Be open to yourself; give yourself a chance. When you are open and loving you become the solution to every problem we have in the world. The unseen essential awaits your enlightened heart’s ascension to love.

— Bryant McGill”

Blessings come like people,
All shapes, sizes, colors,
and times.
Stay open and inviting
to the goodness,
growing and glowing
within you,
and outside of you.

Failure is not a destination. It is an invitation to unforeseen victories. Someone once said that a person who has never failed, has never done anything. Make failure your vitamin. When you fall, especially when it hurts, be willing to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back in the game. You are not competing against anyone, not even yourself. Life is not a sprint. It is a marathon. Are you in it to win it? Reject your fears. Fear is just an emotion, nothing more. It can not hurt you, but it can stop you from achieving your goals if you let it. Face your fears head on, instead. Embrace each moment that you feel you blew it. Remember, it is just a memory. The past only exists in your mind. You have the absolute power to release it. There is a fundamental difference between failure and temporary defeat. Be willing to fail your way to success! You have not failed. You have merely graduated into a brand new opportunity to manifest the Greatness within you! — Les Brown

Make a gift of your life and lift all mankind by being kind, considerate, forgiving, and compassionate at all times, in all places, and under all conditions, with everyone as well as yourself. This is the greatest gift anyone can give. — David Hawkins

 

Love isn’t a big thing, it’s a million little things. Love is caring, sharing and bearing everything together. Love is knots in the knees, butterflies in the stomach, goosebumps on the body and chills in the spine. Love is a heartfelt, passionate and soulful bonding. Love is an emotional, intellectual and sexual compatibility. Love is a feeling that is felt from the depths of the heart and the soul. Love is felt in every single cell, every single vein and every single nerve of the mind and the body. Love is an endless, everlasting and eternal promise.. Love is honesty. Love is transparency. Love is appreciation. Love is loyalty. Loving someone is to deserve someone who respects you enough to never cheat on you or lie to your heart. Loving someone is having someone in your life whom you can treasure in your heart forever. Loving someone is having someone in your life for whom you can fight the world fearlessly… Aarti Khurana – See more at: http://www.lifelovequotesandsayings.com/2015/08/06/love-is-a-million-little-things/#sthash.o4DAWknr.dpuf
