The plans I have for you

This week I am needing some encouraging words, so I thought I would share this inspiring quote. It's actually from a card my grandmother gave me once, and I've never forgotten it.




"Live deep...never stop learning, playing, or finding wonder in the world around you. Live the length of your life, but live the depth of it as well.

Travel light...there is no use in carrying around worry and regret. Always keep yourself open to hope and love. They give us wings.

Forgive Imperfections...in yourself and others. Imperfections keep things interesting. They're the cracks where the light shines through.




Own beautiful things...surround yourself with things that make you happy, that remind you of the beauty all around us if we only keep our eyes open to it.

Take care of yourself...and sometimes that means you need the ice cream. Be good to your body, but also to your mind and spirit. You're the only one who can.

Make mistakes...follow detours. Sometimes it takes an unexpected turn to help us find the life that is waiting for us behind the bend. Trust yourself and the path that is meant for you."

I don't have much words of my own this week, but wanted to end with a verse that has been on my heart lately.
