“LOVE LETTERS TO YOURSELF This is taken from a love letter (a gentle reminder) I wrote to myself recently. Live in your joy today. Be authentic. Love yourself. First. Love others from your own abundance. Life Changes. Circumstances change. Sometimes you try to fit your old way of being into new circumstances rather than becoming new yourself. Embrace transformation as an opportunity. And keep on writing love letters to yourself.” WayWritingTryingFirstsSometimesTodayJoyOpportunityTakenLove YouBecomingFitCircumstancesLettersTransformationEmbraceGentleLife ChangingAbundanceLove YourselfFirst LoveRemindersBeing In LoveLove LetterOld WaysLove Of My LifeLove Yourself FirstChange Is GoodWriting LoveBecoming New Author:Mary Anne Radmacher
“Be yourself. If you water yourself down to please people or to fit in or to not offend anyone, you lose the power, the passion, the freedom and the joy of being uniquely you.

“What's mysterious, ambiguous, inexplicable. What doesn't fit into a story, what doesn't have a story. Glint of brightness on a barely-there chain. Patch of sunlight on a yellow wall. The loneliness that separates every living creature from every other living creature. Sorrow inseparable from joy.” StoriesJoyLonelinessWallFitSorrowCreaturesMysteriousChainsYellowSunlightPatchesInseparableBrightnessAmbiguousInexplicableLiving Creatures Author:Donna Tartt
“A man's usefulness depends on his living up to his ideals insofar as he can. It is hard to fail but it is worse never to have tried to succeed. All daring and courage, all iron endurance of misfortune, make for a finer, nobler type of manhood. Only those are fit to live who do not fear to die; and none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life.” MenHardJoyDiesFailingDutyTypeDependsFitSucceedIdealsIronEnduranceMisfortunesDaringManhoodUsefulnessJoy Of LifeDo Not Fear Book:Theodore Roosevelt's America: Selections from the Writings of the Oyster Bay Naturalist Source: Theodore Roosevelt's America: Selections from the Writings of the Oyster Bay Naturalist
“Life's sunniest hours are not without The shadow of some lingering doubt-- Amid its brightest joys will steal Spectres of evil yet to feel-- Its warmest love is blent with fears, Its confidence a trembling one-- Its smile--the harbinger of tears-- Its hope--the change of April's sun! A weary lot--in mercy given, To fit the chastened soul for heaven.” FeelsSoulJoyEvilGivenHeavenHoursLove IsSunDoubtTearsFitShadowMercyStealingWearyAprilTremblingLingeringHarbingerSpectre Author:John Greenleaf Whittier
“I want to make something I would find joy in consuming. Personally, I enjoy those projects that are worth me investing time and energy and thought into, to find a work that has more to say than will fit in a 4 minute song.” WantJoySongEnergyEnjoyMinutesFitProjectsInvestingConsumingTime And Energy Author:Crowder
“Be not afraid of those trials which God may see fit to send upon thee. It is with the wind and the storm of tribulation that God, in the garner of the soul, separates the true wheat from the chaff. Always remember, therefore, that God comes to thee in thy sorrows as really as in thy joys. He lays low and He builds up. Thou wilt find thyself far from perfection if thou dost not find God in everything.” IfsMaySoulRememberJoyWindFitSorrowLowsPerfectionLaysStormTrialsTheeNot AfraidThyselfWheatTribulation Author:Miguel de Molinos

“I think that Diwata does not fit that mold. She's loud, she's a huge personality, she's imposing. I don't know if I'm the same thing in that sense, but what gives me the joy in playing her is the total rejection of needing to fit in. It's so inspiring.” IfsThinkingKnowsGivingDoeJoyHugePersonalityFitGive MeLoudRejectionMoldImposing Author:Sarah Steele
