"Getting to know and love yourself through acceptance and understanding will build the self-confidence you need to fully embrace your life." ~Allanah Hunt
"Self Confidence is the most attractive quality we can have and yet its one we often struggle with. Brought up in a world where we are taught that its better to fit in than to stand out, we hide our uniqueness behind a wall of ‘normality’ which keeps us small." ~Allanah Hunt

MY BEST PICK FOR TODAY

Eric.Roth.- For what it's worth
"For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the courage to start all over again.” ~Eric Roth

A whole new perspective is born.
"An amazing thing happens when you get honest with yourself and start doing what you love, what makes you happy. You stop wishing for the weekend. You stop merely looking forward to special events. You begin to live in each moment and you start feeling like a human being. You just ride the wave that is life, with this feeling of contentment and joy. You move fluidly, steadily, calm and grateful. A veil is lifted, and a whole new perspective is born." ~Anon

Kate Chopin - The voice of the sea
“The voice of the sea is seductive, never ceasing, whispering, clamoring, murmuring, inviting the soul to wander in abysses of solitude; to lose itself in mazes of inward contemplation. The voice of the sea speaks to the soul. The touch of the sea is sensuous, enfolding the body in its soft, close embrace." ~Kate Chopin from "The Awakening"

On William’s caring side and his passion for helping people: He said

Helen Thornton - a woman of tradition
"Love or hate Diana. She was a wonderful mother who fought with tradition to bring her boys up to respect women and show affection, something sadly lacking in her then husband . William now respects and openly loves his wife and now their new daughter, now I believe that is a legacy, I think he will make a great King with a very strong loved woman by his side." ~Helen Thornton (on the birth of Princess of Cambridge, 2 May 2015)
