Reflections

The people we are in relationship with are always a mirror, reflecting our own beliefs, and simultaneously we are mirrors, reflecting their beliefs. So... relationship is one of the most powerful tools for growth.... If we look honestly at our relationships, we can see so much about how we have created them.

Dallas Weather

My thoughts and prayers go out to all the families that were effected by todays storms in Dallas. I am praying for you all.

Think about it....

If someone makes you miserable, more than they make you happy, and you still love them, maybe its time to let them go? Love yourself! Your worth it!!

journey

It is clearly not the journey for everyone. People succeed in as many ways as there are people. Some can be completely fulfilled with destinations that are much closer to home and more comfortable. But if you long to keep going, then I hope you are able to follow my lead to the places I have gone. To within a whisper of your own personal perfection. To places that are sweeter because you worked so hard to arrive there. To places at the very edge of your dreams. - Michael Johnson

Im your friend

If you're alone, I'll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me. ~

loved ones...

I was out and about today, trying to see loved ones I haven't had the opportunity to spend time with. It was a good day. I feel very blessed to have so many people in my life that adore me just as much as I adore them. I have to spread the joy I feel in my heart with you, in hopes that you too feel the love as much as I do. I feel blessed! Have a great evening!! Posted by Miss West Texas

Feelings we are individually responsible for!

Here are 10 feelings that we are each responsible for: 1. Happy or unhappy 2. Fulfilled or unfulfilled 3. Satisfied or dissatisfied 4. Encouraged or discouraged 5. Loved or unloved 6. Worthy or unworthy 7. Approved of, or disapproved of 8. Deserving or undeserving 9. Grateful or ungrateful 10. Secure or insecure Look at this list and ask yourself, “have I personally taken responsibility for these feelings in my life?” If you find that you are still looking to outside sources, then perhaps it’s time to accept personal responsibility.

Taylor Armstrong, reality tv star: please read

In a new interview with Fox News, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Taylor Armstrong says her new memoir, Hiding From Reality —about her allegedly abusive marriage to financial investor Russell Armstrong —will help other women in similar situations. Sadly, Taylor’s husband Russell killed himself in August 2011; the couple had separated in July. The widowed Housewife opened up about the book, her turbulent relationship, and why she stayed with Russell for so long. Taylor’s main motivations for writing the memoir were to explain why people return to abusive relationships and help women “recognize when they’re involved in a relationship like this to get out before [they] get addicted to that cycle” —which she calls a “love addiction.” Love might seem like a strange word to use, but despite the abuse, Taylor insists she “absolutely loved” her husband —

It's a beautiful day today! Weather is so nice. I'm feeling good thinking about all the great new beginning happening to me and my family! Change is not easy but it is easier when your staying positive!!! The glass is half full people!!! Make today YOUR day!!

Strong Woman

I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman. -Anais Nin

Inspirational: Thought for the day

There comes a time when you must stand alone. You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams. You must be willing to make sacrifices. You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved. Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged. There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities. Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better. Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise just to get by. Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life. Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should learn....
