We are the windows through which our children first see the world. Let us be conscious of the view.

As I loosen my grip on the past, as I keep taking one small step after another in the direction I want to go, I discover I'm being supported and guided after all, and that as soon as I'm willing to embrace change, something or someone comes along and shows me how. Magic wasn't something I had to go in search of; it was here within me, all the time. When hearts are open, when love is flowing, magic happens.

I can only bring peace to my children when I possess it myself.

In simplicity, there is freedom - freedom to do less and enjoy more.

Stay focused on what is beautiful and abundant even as illness carves more and more of what you love away

we can learn to trust our maternal selves and to have faith in the innate goodness and purity of our children - even when we feel overwhelmed and the kids are pushing all our buttons. we can support one another....we can be understanding of each other and easier on ourselves.

Solitude is the soul's holiday, an opportunity to stop doing for others and to surprise and delight ourselves instead.
