Opportunities

My own life experiences have taught me many things over the years, one in particular keeps coming to the forefront. Always be willing to grab an opportunity that is presented, for you never truly know what that opportunity can teach you , where it will lead you, or who you will meet along the way.

We are all presented with opportunities every single day , some big and some small and regardless of the size, each one is there and ready to teach us something about ourselves and others.

Don't let fear hold you back from embracing that opportunity and enjoying the journey it takes you on. An Open mind allows us to explore life in a free way. A closed mind misses out on so much beauty.

Whatever the outcome..it was never a waste of time or effort.

Listen to Your Body


Having to make decisions can be tough. It's difficult some times to know the right thing to do because in reality there are consequences to every decision we have to make in life. If you are like me, you made decisions that weren't necessarily the best however you did what you thought was right at the time, with the knowledge you had and the skills you had at that very time.

At the end of the day, it was those decisions that taught me some of the greatests lessons in life.

As I grow older some decisions are still tougher than others but I am much more in tune to listening to my body and when I make decisions they come with a great deal of confidence as my values come into play on a much larger scale than they ever have before. My body lets me know the right thing to do..oddly enough it is one of the greatest teachers we will ever have if we pay attention.

Look in the mirror and trust the person looking back at you!


Many people don't like growing older...for me I am grateful for what age is teaching me!
