[AffirmationstoDe-Stress] MORNING COFFEE [4 Attachments]

"It's time for something new."   Remember your first day of school or the first time you rode a bike? Or how about the excitement of your first kiss?   The older we get, it seems those "firsts" are fewer and further between. When's the last time you started something new, or tried something for the very first time?   Life gets busy, and we can get so wrapped up in our day-to-day lives that starting something new can seem like an undeserved indulgence. But it shouldn't be!   Starting a new project, trying something you've always wanted to, or revisiting an old activity you used to love doing is a great way to renew your spirit and energy. If there's something you've been thinking of doing, but not getting around to – make at least one step toward it today. You deserve something "new" in your life every once in a while.   ©Jane Powell     Just because my eyes don't tear, doesn't mean my heart doesn't cry. Just because I come off strong, doesn't mean there's nothing wrong. Being broken hearted is like having broken ribs. On the outside it looks like nothing's wrong, but inside every breath hurts. The same person who smiles and talks non-stop, might be the same one who cries when they're all alone. So be kind to people you meet, you never know what kind of day they're having. We're all the same you and I, just trying to get by with life's ups and downs. Some of us are better at hiding what we're going through.   Live for   It's easy to figure out what you don't like. Yet it is essential to also define and focus on what you do like and value.   You won't get very far by simply avoiding and opposing whatever you find undesirable. Progress and fulfillment come not by living against, but by living for.   If there's something that deeply troubles you, something you strongly dislike, you're part of the way to discovering what you do like. Make the effort to replace that intense dislike with an even more intense positive desire.   When you fight against anything, you run the risk of making it much stronger. Instead of fighting against something, spend your time and energy living for a more positive alternative.   Don't settle for a life lived in opposition. The way to make life less negative is to proactively make it more positive.   Live for what you truly love, value and appreciate. Fill your life with what you do like, and there will be no room left for what you don't like.   Ralph Marston     - Dear Readers, " Morning Coffee " is a labor of love and meant to be shared with others to spread encouragement and inspiration.
