  Quote of the day:  So many people struggle every day with learning to love themselves, and although I know that this statement alone is also said alongside it everyday, it tends to be ignored.  To be like a clashing cymbal or a clanging gong, to be repeated over and over again until it becomes meaningless sound, only to be ignored.  Learning to love yourself is a feat and a battle all on its own. And trust me, I know. And I still fight daily.  Who were you before the sounds of world entered into your mind? I believe that that person, is who you really were, if you haven't found them again.  I was a child, that alone is quite evident! But more than that, I created stories. Every day, it was a new one with my stuffed animals. Flying, jumping, saving others from deep and dark caverns and ravines. Swimming across tearing rapids, and getting home just in time for tea.  The world of mine that was purely ravaged by stories unending. That is w...

  Quote(s) of the day:  Wings lately have been something that mean more to me than just simply flying. Just how this, is not so much about the actually flying, as what it meant to her. Whoever 'she' may be.  Knowing where your own wings are, even when you don't see or feel them, is a blessing and a gift I think. But so often times when people don't understand, because they don't see your wings. And sometimes they don't see their own.  Remember how to fly once you've been led once more unto your own blue sky. What does your sky look like, the one where you climb up to reach it, just to touch it and feel it once more.  What does the sky look like when you remember that you've been set free? I'll tell you mine–blue and purple with magenta thrown in, stars scattered so far and filling the heavens, clouds just covering parts of it, but the light shining on through. A perfect galaxy all completely visible, even if just to me. A beautiful star lit ni...

So I vanished for a while. Probably because of many things that happened, and many things that life threw my way. Till I guess one day I suddenly decided to check on something not mine, only to find I'd been nominated for something back in May by a good dear friend, Bronze .  What better way to make it back than to have something to write about! Rules: Thank the person who nominated you. Nominate 3 new bloggers every day. Post a new quote every day for 3 days. Today's quote: Would it be cheating to add another quote, to describe my first quote? I'll do it anyway, though I'll do two more–A lady with class is timeless. I'm not saying learn to drink tea a certain way or how to sit and stand or how to say 'please' and 'thank you.' Quite contrary, what I am trying to say is–Be a woman who's first thought and priorities are God. Granted, I struggle myself with that alone, but so do all people. But that should never ever stop you from ...
