Inspiring Words

“In the crush of a hectic day, it’s easy to lose sight of your most basic needs : whole food, fresh air, sound sleep, love. Easy to get caught up in the complexity of life, in the expectations and obligations crowding you in. The path back to serene simplicity doesn’t require razing your schedule to the ground. Rather, it calls for a certain quality of attention (the closer look, the longer pause) and a willingness to look for and appreciate pure sweetness wherever you find it.”

-Terri Trespicio (from Body + Soul Magazine, Nov 2009)

Me too! I cut it out of the magazine immediately and have held on to it since as a reminder to slow down

Thanks for the quote Carolyn, and that “Just Breathe” image is so adorable. We tend to forget to do that sometimes ;)

Need to write that on a post-it note and put it on my computer screen – too easy to forget! Reminder: Just Breathe

That quote is so true! Great idea to write ‘Just Breathe’ on a post-it note to keep reminding myself of it. Thank you!

Your blog is so inspiring, I love it! I have been silently reading it for a while, but will leave a comment more often!
