Love forgives all mistakes

Sometimes life gives us things that we may not like or want. We are tested and tried, and it can feel like we are being pulled in directions we never thought we could go. We cannot always choose what happens to us, but we can control how we react to those situations. Today I am choosing to be a little more patient,to love a little more and allow that love to help me forgive,when hard times come my way.

Life is Beautiful



"My Theory is about moments. Moments of impact. My theory is that these moments of impact, these flashes of high intensity that completely turn our lives upside down actually end up defining who we are."  
               -Leo, The Vow.

There are people that can come into our lives and permanently leave a mark on our souls. We cannot take people for granite. Everybody is fighting their own battle inside and everyone needs to be loved. I lost a loved one two years ago to cancer and she was so amazing and sweet. I now look back and wish i could of spent more time with her and showed her more often how much I loved her. More recent events have been happing in my life and I have decided that I want to share more often my love for others and hope to make a difference in their lives. I also hope to live more like this part of the story from the TWLOA site. 
        "We often ask God to show up. We pray prayers of rescue. Perhaps God would ask us to be that rescue, to be His body, to move for things that matter. He is not invisible when we come alive. It might be simple but more and more, I believe God works in love, speaks in love, is revealed in our love.I have seen that this week and honestly, it has been simple: Take a broken girl, treat her like a famous princess, giver her the best seats in the house. Tell her something true when all she's known are lies. TELL HER GOD LOVES HER. Tell her about forgiveness, the possibility of freedom, tell her she was made to dance in a white dress. All these things are true."
