When all is said and done love is all that’s left behind– that’s what I was reminded of

Today I was reminded that when all is said and done love is all that’s left behind. Let’s just love!

The things you try to pray away may be your saving grace– that’s what I have realized

I managed to pray, read Bible, spend time with my young friends at Breath of Life   and work on my 28 For 28 Campaign benefiting charity:water  – David Boutin donated $50 we’ve now raised $3 879 of $28 000 with 58 days to go

Today I was at Breath of Life surrounded by babies pushing me around joyfully and in that moment I was glad to be in a wheelchair, I was glad to be me…the things you try to pray away may be your saving grace

Sometimes all we can do is pray– that’s what I have realized

Recent events have reminded me that sometimes all we can do is pray (even if we feel angry with God)

A new month is a new opportunity – that’s what I have realized

Today is the first day of August and after the mostly horrid month that was july I welcome August

Your horrible day is someone else’s dream– that’s what I have realized

Today I was having a horrible day until life reminded me that my horrible day is someone else’s dream. I’m grateful for my life.

Don’t try to force relationships that don’t flow naturally– that’s my message to the world

A long time ago it was really important to me that I get along with people of my age I would contort myself into all sorts of shapes to make it happen but now I don’t force relationships that don’t flow naturally.

Now is the only time there is – that’s what I have realized

Today I’ve been thinking about the future and even as I do I remind myself that all we really have is now

As you grow your heartbreaks change – that’s what I have realized

Today I was thinking about the evolution of my heartbreaks with age – in my teens and early 20s my greatest heartbreak would be the thought that I would never go visit Europe now my greatest heartbreak is knowing that I will most likely not give birth to or raise children (this no-children thing is breaking my heart more than possibly not visiting Europe ever could). No matter the meaningful things I do with my days at the end of each day I will get into an empty bed and no child of my own…it hurts parts of me I didn’t even know existed.

To succeed is amazing but to help others succeed is amazing – that’s my message to the world

Today I was reminded that my definition of success is truly evolving it’s no longer enough for me to succeed on my own I have to be a ladder and door-opener for others

Live by faith and not by sight – that’s my message to the world

 I managed to pray, read Bible, spend time outside and work on my 28 For 28 Campaign benefiting charity:water  –  Anon donated  $5 we’ve now raised $3 909 of $28 000 with 67 days to go

This morning I couldn’t wait for this month to end but I’ve kind of changed my mind and realized things work out
