Never give up, ever.

We take and take because God knows we can. It hurts and we emotionally bleed. We pick ourselves up and march forward.... We are stronger of heart and soul because we are women!

When it just stinks and we rail against all that is Holy, we are reminded of the gentle birds, kitties, babies, flowers, cake and all that is unconditional love. Then we can be glad we are alive and can bare another day .

If God brought us to it, s/he will bring us through it.

Hugs and much love Charm!

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food and water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.

The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing: they miss someone very special to them; who had to be left behind. They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. The bright eyes are intent; the eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to break away from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. YOU have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

By Owl City

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems

'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance

A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep

To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell

But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep

I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams

There are numerous people in history who have inspired us with their wisdom and knowledge, helping mankind whether it be spiritual wisdom, in the scientific field, stories of strength and bravery etc.
There are moments my mind ponders on these people and why we don’t have so many of them around anymore. People like Mother Teresa, Albert Einstein, Mohammed Gandhi, Nikola Tesla, Saints and martyrs of past centauries, great poets, musicians, mathematicians and artists – people who have made an impression on us , who will be remembered for all time .

I wondered if only a selected few were blessed with this gift of leaving their mark imprinted onto mankind. Was it something in their charts? Was it destiny? Were they born unto this world with that particular mission? Why can’t we all be like them? If we all had unique contributions to add to this Earth then surely it would be a better place for everyone.
As most ofus know, we all have the ability to attain such wisdom. Each individual’s journey is unique and that journey consists of many roads, some of which are detours that may last for longer periods than others. Our personal truth is just that – we absorb information, process it, ponder and question it, even test it then decide whether that information is right for us or not. There is no rule stating that because an “enlightened” individual made a statement about a certain idea or concept that we have to accept it as truth. This applies to religious views as well. We have the gift of free will to choose what is right for us.

From my own personal experience I have accepted and discarded some beliefs because I could immediately feel if the information I was processing was right for me or not. Many people just follow for the sake of belonging. Most don’t even understand the true meaning of the teachings they follow or how to incorporate them into their daily lives but that’s another topic all together.

Find your own Truth and journey on your own Path. You too can be one of those people that you admire, we need not wait another hundred or so years for someone “special” to be born and show us the way.

Charm, I believe we all were born to a mission. Our missions may not be as famous as those mentioned, but one life, one soul helped by us is as important.
We may not go down in history yet we all make a place, an imprint on those we leave behind. You have touched me deeply on many levels . Thank you for being you and sharing your life here with us.

If life seems at its lowest ebb,
Because a day's gone wrong.
Let not your heart be troubled,
For a new day soon will dawn

And we can never be quite sure,
Just what it has in store.
Since each one is so different,
Than the one just gone before

As it penetrates the darkness,
With its soft and tranquil beams.
It calms even the most restless soul,
And brings new hopes and dreams

So when a days been troubled,
And the night is dark and long.
Lift up your fallen spirits,
For a new day soon will dawn
