- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Each of us is of infinite value,
and each of us has the ability to make
a profound difference in the lives we touch.

on those around us by the nature of our lives
and the example we set -

or how important we believe we are.
Setting an example of being loving, relaxed and joyful,
regardless of external circumstances,

without taking time for self-renewal and play,
abandons the joy and the true value of life.

Today would be a wonderful day
not to take life so seriously.

being gentle with yourself.
Let life be a dance,
and choose the kind of
dance you want for today -
perhaps a gentle loving dance.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
LOVE LETTERS TO YOURSELF
This is taken from a love letter (a gentle reminder)
I wrote to myself recently.
Live in your joy today.
Be authentic. Love yourself. First.

of being into new circumstances
rather than becoming new yourself.
Embrace transformation as an opportunity.
And keep on writing love letters to yourself.

Life is NOT "Supposed to be Fair."
Know that there is no single way that life is "supposed" to be.
