Never forget that the most essential fashion accessories, the ones no woman can afford to do without, come from within. A generous heart, a spontaneous smile, and eyes that sparkle with delight can be part of any woman's signature look once she awakens to her authentic beauty.

Authentic success is being so grateful for the many blessings bestowed on you and yours that you can share your portion with others.

Remember, no matter what life throws at us, we can always bake a cake!

It's a perfect moment to quietly meditate on the cosmic Great Mother who can inspire us all; the divine, feminine Spirit of nurturance known as The Goddess, so revered in ancient times and being rediscovered by women today.

How could I expect more from the universe when I didn't appreciate what I already had?

I truly believe that we each have a House of Belonging waiting for us. Waiting to be found, waiting to be built, waiting to be renovated, waiting to be cleaned up. Waiting to rescue us. Waiting for the real thing: a grown-up, romantic, reciprocal relationship.

When we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that's present ... we experience heaven on earth.
