The Gift of Life ♥

Standard

My favourite composer

summed up the gift of life

in beautiful words.

The Gift of life

We are surrounded by such unbelievable beauty.
Life is enigmatic.
Life is delicate.
Life is painful.
Life is inspiring.
Life is love.
Life is the tears we shed
in joy and in sorrow.
Life is magical.
Life is the greatest gift!

(Thomas Bergersen  - Illusions)

The Magic of Love ♥

Standard

Love is powerful

Love is magic.

The Magic of Love

The magic of love is
that it has the ability
to make the impossible
possible.
1 Corinthians 13:4-13


Love is patient,
love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It does not dishonor others,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.

For you!

Steffi from The Kokopelli bee free blog had this idea.

We all go through ups and downs in our life and sometimes need some help which is not always straight there.  So we can help each other.

Idea 2.

Write a Gratitude Journal

This picture is the one I will use, all ready for January 2013.

I will write down every day , at the end of the day, what good things the day gave me and what I was grateful for on this day.

A wonderful way to celebrate each day, think of the gifts and positive things of each day and I can show my gratitude and be thankful .

you can receive everything

as a marvelous gift.”
