{hold that thought}




...the courage to be just me.


make it
a
good day
my lovely friends.

make it different

sweet

challenging perhaps
painful

let it pull you out from the inside
let it give life to you

make it
yours.

make it belong to you. just you.

and let love in.

Wow Gina! Beautiful thoughts and beautiful sites!!

We must always find the courage to be ourselves...and once we begin to just "be" who we are, we realize that courage wasn't really part of it anyway...just the stepping stone to get us there!!

I could just see myself sitting in the window of that first photo and reading to my heart's content!!

Interesting and thought-provoking poem. Strange how it takes courage to be yourself. We're so warped by the world around us that sometimes it's difficult to even know who we really are...

It´s not everyday easy to be me - but most of the time I can say that I am, and I love it! And if I have a day in which it´s not so easy this helps me to motivate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqQ7iCXhTAo
