"Poems, Quotes, and/or Affirmations"

[Pd4Me]

Hi Folks,
I thought we could start a thread were we post any kind of poems, quotes or affirmations any of us use or live by. Here's one to get us started:

"When tears come, I breath deeply and rest, I know I am swimming in a hallowed stream where many have gone before. I an not alone, crazy or having a nervous breakdown.... My Heart is at work my souls is awake."

(Mary Margaret, Funk in Thoughts Matter: The practice of spiritual life)

more affirmations

I acknowledge that I have a purpose.

My life is too worthy

To be led away from
My loving grasp

I'm a powerful individual

Who matters in the most unique ways.

My presence creates a vast difference

In the movements of life.

Everyone and everything around me

Is affected by my strength of will.

I acknowledge my right to hold my head up

Above the rough waters

And ride life's waves

With the lightness and laughter

Of a dolphin's smile.

My day my way

often we're so busy to make any time for ourselves in the hectic life we lead. Take a few "ME" moments and say this affirmation:

[CENTER]

I am committed
To reconnecting with me
I promise to give myself
Love and care
As I go through my day
I will comfort and protect myself
The best way that I know how.
I won't ignore myself
As I tend to the needs of others.
I am aware that I am my best ally.
It is my right
to feel the sand between my toes,
Dig my hands in the earth's goodness,
And walk with the sun smiling at me
Now and always

[/CENTER]

( This affirmation was taken from "The healing handbook" by Jodi Levy)

Thank you! I love those!

One of my favourite quotes is:

Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you will land among the stars.

I hope people still look at this because I need help...quick. I got my husband a corny Christmas present, a plush kidney, and I need some kind of quote or poem or something to put in his card to go along with it. Something more than... I cant give you one of my kidneys right now so I hope you'll settle for this. Thats not catchy and Im not very creative so I need help. Thanks!!
