Not ever, not once, Sue, not since time began has there been someone who's actually made the kind of choices you've consistently made, year after year, your whole life long, in spite of fleeting fears, lingering doubts and moments of despair. Yet now, for the countless multitudes waiting on the sidelines for their turn, there's a path, an example to follow, and a light to show them the way.
Jolly good show,
The Universe

- “The moment inbetween what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place.” ~ Barbara De Angelis "Nothing happens without personal transformation." I decided one day I wanted to change. I wanted more from life. I realized that if you want more, YOU have to make it happen. You have to go to it and create it. The most powerful weapon against a mediocre life is practice. And just like a fire, the human spirit needs to be lit again each day.

CONTACT Tiny Wisdom: On Seeing Good

“Always be mindful of the kindness and not the faults of others.” -Buddha
It’s easy to focus on someone else’s faults and flaws–we’re all human and we all have them. But shining a light on someone’s weaknesses doesn’t help them improve; it merely reminds them you’re more attentive to what they lack than what they have.
We all want to be appreciated for who we are and the good we do, regardless of our shortcomings. We want to believe that what we do is enough–that we’re enough, even if we don’t do everything perfectly and still have room to grow.
We can’t control how other people treat us, but can we show them how in the way we treat them.
Whose kindness can you acknowledge today?

a 35 year old undergrad
Well, I'm registered for Biology 101 in the spring! I have 8 undergrad science classes to take before I can apply to grad school to work towards a doctorate in Physical Therapy.
Wow, it is going to be a long road from here. I am looking forward to it though.
