Currie's Gratitude 6 March 2014


Be the one who nurtures and builds. Be the one who has an understanding and a forgiving heart; one who looks for the best in people. Leave people better than you found them.  [Marvin J. Ashton]

I often look at what NOT to BE. What I don’t want to create MORE of in Life. And I’m keeping myself to myself, NOT giving myself away easily.

I prefer BEing an encourager. Someone who builds people up and BElieves in them wholeheartedly.

If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be cynical. Well, that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.  [Ray Bradbury]

I love the idea of building wings on the way “down” Life’s cliffs. It encourages me in building a Life that I love.

Much I BElieved essential for living is NOT. And much that I thought, well, silly, is NOT, either.

The one thing that you have that nobody else has is you. Your voice, your mind, your story, your vision. So write and draw and build and play and dance and live as only you can.   [Neil Gaiman]

This BEautimous notion is worthy of knitting into everybody’s brain, eh?!


I love you, Currie

Yes, how true! The older I get the less I know. But building people up is always a good thing. That has never changed. :)
