Happiest Moment

If tomorrow....
It came to my mind this evening... how often do we tell the people in our lives how much we love them? What if they were to die tomorrow and you never told them what you felt? That is a sad thing!
It is so important to tell your family, friends, significant other, etc. that you love them every chance you get and you will never regret it! Not only does this make them feel good to know they are loved, but it is good for ones own heart as well.
I know a few certain times in my life that my last words to someone had been that I loved them because they were gone before I saw them again and I am thankful for those times... but I often regret the ones I remember not saying it too and they were gone before I had the chance... and those were the ones that I thought had a lot of years left, but they were young... close to my age. You never know what tomorrow holds!
So when you say bye to someone you care about say 'i love you'... and it doesn't matter what others think... what matters is you showing love to those you care about. I need to improve on this myself... so spread all the love you can!!!! Today is here... tomorrow may not be! I love you! <3

The Past
The things we have experienced in the past that have caused us some scars seem to be the things that always try to stay in the forefront of our minds. We can forgive others but we have to forgive ourselves as well in order to move on.
Have you experienced something in your past that has effected who you are today because of the pain and hurt that you went through? I think we all have something like that, but we have to try our best to stay focused on where we are at in our journey because looking back can cause hurt over and over again and cause us to lose sight of who we really are and where we really want to be.
Remember... those who hurt others always comes full circle and will come back to them... we may never even know when it does. The important thing is that we forgive others, we forgive ourselves, and move on... we are on a journey moving forward so don't get stuck in the ditch along the road!

Love and Compassion
I think that Love and Compassion are 2 things the whole world lacks. If we don't show that, who will? We have to show that we care and I certainly hope we do! That we care for every single individual.
One day I was asked why I would ever 'hang out with someone like that.' I now know what Jesus must have felt like. There are some who would be accusatory of Him for being with the 'sinners'. I am glad that He didn't care what others thought about that. He was there to help anyone who wanted it or needed it.
So when others may judge you for who you spend time with just remember that your love and compassion will be remembered and returned to you no matter who may put you down.
Anyone who would call someone else a sinner... has never truly looked in a mirror.
Please always show love and kindness and compassion to EVERYONE!!!!

Never Hold Back
The point I want to make is that we don't want to hold back on our potential. Wherever our place in life we want to give it all we have. Many people still tell me that I have 'hidden talents' but I often clam up in some settings and I don't share of my 'talents' like I should. I feel we all have those gifts and we all hold back out of fear.
In today's society many people are maybe even fearful of sharing their talents because of criticism and bullying. Remember though that when someone is hurtful to you they are often jealous that you have a particular talent and they don't and that is why it is necessary as well, when someone is sharing of their talents, to remain encouraging. Maybe you can remember a time when you felt that you would never do something again because someone laughed at you (not with you). Look above that in yourself and show them that they may try to bring you down, but they won't because you can fly...you do have wings...you can excel at your talent... Never let them tear you down and Never hold back on your talents or dreams.
So.... What's holding you back?
