Try Approving

A L O H A From Honolulu!

You've been criticizing yourself
for years and
it hasn't worked.
Try approving of yourself
and see what happens.
Louise Hay





There is not enough darkness
in all the world to
put out the
light of even
one small candle.
   Robert Alden




One joy scatters
a hundred griefs
If I keep a green bough
in my heart, the
singing bird will come.
Chinese Proverbs




Authenticity is a collection of
choices that we have to
make every day. It's about the
choice to show up and be real.
The choice to be honest.
The choice to let our
true selves be seen.
 Brene Brown

  16. It looks like Pixie has the dragon's pearl. Is she holding it until the Year of the Dragon begins? That boy looks ready to join the lion dancers. I have my Year of the Dragon Lego sets all done and ready for the big day... (You started a trend with your email a few years ago.)
