"Being tender and open is beautiful. As a woman, I feel continually shhh’ed. Too sensitive. Too mushy. Too wishy washy. Blah blah. Don’t let someone steal your tenderness. Don’t allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart. Nothing is more powerful than allowing yourself to truly be affected by things. Whether it’s a song, a stranger, a mountain, a rain drop, a tea kettle, an article, a sentence, a footstep, feel it all – look around you. All of this is for you. Take it and have gratitude. Give it and feel love."

-Zooey Deschanel

Oh dear,

You are beautiful.
Times can become tough. But just believe in yourself.
Those scars on your knees? They've shown me you've fallen.
That sparkle in your eyes when you smile? They show me you
picked yourself up. That smile of yours is drop dead gorgeous,
wear it more often.

Who gives a shit if you have acne? Who cares if your overweight
or underweight, tall or short, tan or pale, an A cup or D cup?

All that matters is that someone thinks your beautiful just the way you are.
And that someone is me.

Just

Wish

Make a wish and place it in your
heart.
Anything you want, everything you want.
Do you have it? Good.
Now believe it can come true. You never know
where the next
miracle
is going to come from,
the next
smile,
the next wish come true.




But if you believe that it's right around the corner,
and you open your heart
and mind to the possibility of it, to the certainty of it.
You just might get the thing you're wishing for.
The world is full of
magic.
You just have to believe in it. So make your wish.
Do you have it? Good.
Now believe in it. With all your heart.
♥
