I Dare You

I Dare You to Accept something today you are resisting, blaming someone else for or resigned to.  Letting go of how you think it should be is freeing and opens you up to a new and potentially exciting outcome.  

I Dare You to find Compassion for someone who hurt you.  Remember, they have been hurt as well.  

I Dare You to live Courageously and to take a risk.  Life was meant to be lived as an adventure.  

I Dare You to Forgive today.  Picture anger and love on a seesaw, one on each side.  As anger comes down, love rises. Choose love and enjoy the ride.  

I Dare You to be out-of-the-ordinary Kind to all those that serve you today:  the cashier, server, janitor. Watch your life shift as you shift theirs.  

I Dare You to be bold with your Love today and tell someone (or more than one) you love them.  Maybe someone who hasn’t heard it from you in a while. Why hold back on the most precious thing you could ever give?  

I Dare You to live with Passion.  No one else on the planet ever will be able to do what you can do, as you would do it.  Never before and never again can it happen, just as you would make it happen.

I Dare You to be Present to everyone today.  Appreciate something about them as they speak and listen from the heart.

I Dare You to be Peaceful.  Living in peaceful ways will naturally bring peace to you, your family and all those you come in contact with.  

A change of heart, changes everything.  I Dare You.

The Heart of a Woman

The heart of a woman is as big as life. She initiates conversations with strangers in the bathroom.

She recommends the perfect place to find the perfect dress to a woman she meets at the beauty salon. She clips coupons to send to her daughter-in-law. She smiles when she would rather scream; cries when she is happy and often says “yes” when she means “no”.

A woman keeps the refrigerator full just in case someone stops by unexpectedly.

A woman fights for what she believes in by supporting community endeavors with both time and money. She listens to friends, helps with homework and gives unconditional loves.

Women cry over their children’s accomplishments, during a romantic movie, while reading sentimental cards at a card shop or when opening a special present. Women openly express happiness when hearing about the birth of a baby, an engagement or a marriage. Women share their emotions from their heart.

Women remain strong even when they think they have no strength left. They comfort loved ones in mourning, visit friends and family who are ill, and offer hugs and kisses to soothe broken hearts. Simply put, women connect!

They write letters, make phone calls, send e-mails and stay in touch. Women care!

Women are present wherever and whenever they are needed. They intuitively know where to offer their love and support.

Women do more than give birth. Where a woman is there exists joy and hope. She brings compassion and companionship. She gives moral support. She acknowledges. She reassures. Women are mothers, daughters, wives, lovers, sisters, aunts, and grandmothers.

They give, they guide, and stay grounded. They are amazing not only for what they accomplish, but for the values they impart. Women earn our respect every day not only because of what they do, but because of who they are.

Let me know about some amazing women in your life…
