How Do You React When Others Speak Unkindly About You Inspirational Reading Share

 


"How do you react when others speak unkindly about you?" she asked.
She paused thoughtfully for a second before replying.
"I think to myself,
if their words are intended to be hurtful,
then they must be hurting on the inside in some way,
for those who are truly happy and successful,
uplift and elevate the energy of everyone they encounter,
and it is only those who are insecure or unhappy with their lives in some way
that attempt to bring others down
and spend their time criticizing and belittling others
to distract from themselves and their own lives.
And nothing that they say
is truly about the other person
but is a projection of their own pain and limiting beliefs.
And in that moment,
I think to myself,
if they are feeling this low about themselves,
such that they have to speak negatively about others,
then they must be in need of extra love
and so I send them my love energetically
through positive intention,
thinking, "I wish you peace and happiness,"
and then continue on happily with my day,
not allowing their words to impact me
in any way.
For their opinions have nothing to do with me,
as my life is my own to live.
And I do not allow them to distract me from all that I wish to do, love, be, and create in the world,
for life is too short and precious
to be wasted
focusing on anything other than that."

Sharing this one for my friends with Little Ones-  I miss those days! 


Christmas is a magical time of the year. How often have you lain in bed, visions of sugar plums dancing through your head? Maybe you’ve began to gently drift into a dream when, suddenly, you realize . . . you didn’t move the elf!

That darn elf. Making you get out of bed when you’re all snuggled up after a long day of gift-wrapping. But you know that if you don’t move it, the kids will begin to unravel the Christmas secrets you’ve worked so hard to preserve over the years! Before you know it, they’ll think Santa isn’t real and they’ll be all grown up. 
Fine, you say to yourself, I’ll get up and move the freakin’ elf. However, as time goes on, your kids start to notice the elf’s moving to the same spots over and over, doing the same old things. It starts to become less believable.

For when you’re stuck in this predicament, author Jason Deas has developed 101 different ideas of what to do with your Christmas elf. Get St. Nick’s assistants off the shelf and into a variety of creative situations that will amaze and amuse your children:

Make your elf some skis for water skiing and snow skiing
Set up your elf like he’s been working out all night long
Put your elf in a boat in the bathtub
Create a drum set with a few cans, pots, plastic containers, and other odds and ends
Have your elf become a mechanic and fix a toy car

Filled with Christmas spirit and humor, 
101 Things To Do With Your Christmas Elf is your handbook to surviving December and making sure you keep your little holiday helper on the move.

Your Day Doesn't Have To Be Perfect To Have Meaning- Perfection Will Never Matter But You Do- Loving Life Is Important Reminder Quote

 

No, it won’t always be perfect.
Your hair won’t always look ideal, your makeup may not always be flawless..
Your days probably won’t always be easy and smooth.
But that’s okay.
They don’t have to be.
Life isn’t about perfection, it’s about so much more than that:
It’s about being real, listening to your heart and living fully.
All those little things that we like to disregard as unimportant?
They matter.
A lot.
Showing up matters.
Giving back and giving to others matters.
Loving passionately and living bravely matters.
Sometimes, just being there matters.
Maybe it’s time to stop thinking that you’re not doing enough and that you’re not enough.
Perhaps you should step back and see yourself and your life for what really matters.
Don’t beat yourself up for the failures,
take pride in your successes,
No matter how small.
Maybe you’re not where you want to be, and that’s okay.
You’ll get there.
But don’t be in such a hurry to reach your goals that you don’t enjoy the ride.
There’s beauty all around you every day-
Children playing, a friend smiling.. even just enjoying a beautiful sunset.
Perhaps you’ve just stopped looking for it.
Open your heart, change your perspective and begin to realize that you matter.
A lot.
Believe in yourself and your journey and know that all those things you thought were little…
Aren’t .
They matter.
You matter.
Turn the page and start a new chapter.
It’s time to realize that everything you are, that you do and that you are becoming..
It all matters…
But it all starts with you.
