Empowering words of wisdom

 A good friend sent me this recently and it made me smile. Hope it brings some sunshine to your day :-)

It’s ok to have a wall built around my heart…just as long as I build a door in it so that the right person can be invited in. -  Gina Marie

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." – Marilyn Monroe

I am not afraid…I was born to do this.

Joan of Arc
The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.

Maureen Dowd
If I had to live my life again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner.

Tallulah Bankhead
"This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And babe, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about."
Marilyn Monroe

If you realized how powerful your thoughts are, you would never think a negative thought.

Peace Pilgrim
If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain.

Dolly Parton
Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
-
Harriet Beecher Stowe
But my favourite one has to be this:

"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best” – Marilyn Monroe
