Sunday Inspiration: In the midst of winter

In the midst of winter,
I found there was, within me,
an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy.
For it says that no matter
how hard the world pushes against me,
within me, there’s something stronger –
something better, pushing right back.
-Albert Camus

In The Coming Year

I like this quote by C. S. Lewis:

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”

What goals will you set? What dreams will you dream? We still have a few days before 2025. Let’s plan and dream together to make our own new year the best it can be.

Happy New Year!

Sunday Inspiration: Transitions

Transitions are almost always signs of growth,
but they can bring feelings of loss.
To get somewhere new,
we may have to leave somewhere else behind.”

Sunday Inspiration: Ripples

“No one is finally dead
until the ripples they cause in the world die away,
until the clock wound up winds down,
until the wine she made has finished its ferment,
until the crop they planted is harvested.
The span of someone’s life
is only the core of their actual existence.”
—Terry Pratchett

You don’t have to move mountains. Simply fall in love with life. Be a tornado of happiness, gratitude, and acceptance. You will change the world just by being a warm, kind-hearted human being.”

Sunday Inspiration: Imagine

“Imagine if we all walked into the world
with the belief that each person was inherently worthy.
Imagine if our goal
was to help each other recognize
that we are worthy of being loved.
Imagine if we sought to listen more than we spoke,”
– Fred Rogers
