The pandemic has brought out great courage and strength, patience and forgiveness….gifts I never realized that I so strongly possessed.

Learn from mistakes and failures, moving forward with optimism and a positive attitude.

I will by just simply smiling to a stranger or speaking kind words on the phone.

Everyone needs compassion right now. We all just need to be silent and listen.

Speak only words of truth, love and faith always.

Taking full responsibility opens my heart and soul to new possibilities and acceptance.

Stop and be silent. Look around with all senses. Take a deep breath and just go!

I can see the beginning of this new day with the sun rising slowly and the world awaking, as well as a season ending with the leaves falling and the trees becoming bare. So many natural wonders surround me on this new day.

Being critical of the small, petty things in life often takes away any joy from the moment. .Pick your battles wisely.

The excitement of this new day with endless opportunities and adventures, sincere direction and guidance.

Pure patience and understanding…..

Smile and be kind and compassionate to all.

By being silent and just listen.

Reading…quietly by myself.

As the sun is rising, this new day invites me to spread my wings and fly high into adventures, opportunities , peace and joy.

My beautiful grandchildren.

True kindness and compassion during a time of illness received from an unexpected person.

With unconditional kindness and compassion always.

The sunrise in the early morning hours…brilliant artwork on a blank canvas such as this new day is in life.

Early morning with this new day full of new beginnings, opportunities and adventures….deliciously fresh.
