It's a new day
a fresh start
a better way
to live from the heart.
It's a new day
the past is gone
cares float away
happiness lives on
It's a new day
start something new
who cares what they say
grab what you're due
It's a new day
make a beautiful course
take time to play
connect with your source
It's a new day
make it your own
change is in your hands
look how much you've grown!

Put Your Heart Into It
Posted by Mary D'Alba on Saturday, February 27, 2010,

Put your heart into it.
Add love in whatever you do.
Find ways to give hope
and see the good as best you can.
Because when you look
though the eyes of
compassion, love and
understanding, you see things,
people, situations in whole
new vision and light.
When you shut your heart off,
you lose your ability to
see clearly. Your agenda takes over.
Your eyes close.
There is no seeing it
for what it is. You may be
seeing it for what it will be,
could be, can be, might be.
What about reali... Continue reading ...
Who Do You Listen To?

In :

Who do you listen to? People on the outside and
voices that aren't yours? Maybe they know better, you say, how could I know? How could you not? What is best for you can only be determined by you. Misteps you have made in the past make you believe that you don't know what's best. Aren't mistakes part of learning? You grow from your mistakes, you see diamonds in the rough, opportunities in the challenges, so why aren't mistakes a part of your learning curve while you're here? Yes, they are no fun but they are w... Continue reading ...

Step Forward

When you realize you are far from center,
not in the place you want to be,
you have a choice.
Stay where you are and
not reach your goals, be miserable
and feel like life is never going to change.
The other choice is to take steps,
no matter how small, no matter how few,
to get back to your center.
You didn't get the far away in one day,
you won't get back to the center
in one day either.
Even if you have to take a step back,
you still be closer to your center.
Have patience, persevere
and fi... Continue reading ...
You Are Who You Are

You are who you are.
Being someone else doesn't fit you.
So be comfortable in your skin.
Love all of who you are.
Doing that, you inspire others.
How?
You release fear.
You remove the mask.
You bow out of the game.
You are you.
And trust me,
you are spectacular.
Yes, you.
There is nothing you can't do
once you embrace
who you are.
Not sure who you are?
Well, time to get to know
yourself better than ever.
What do you want in life?
What is no longer acceptable?
What are your talents?

You are powerful. You get through the hard times. You move with grace. You still fight when exhausted.
You are powerful. You have an endless well of strength, even when you feel like it's dry, you manage to find more.
You are powerful waking up every day turning your face to the sun and saying "I can face it"
You are powerful. Helping others in need, smiling even in pain, staying positive in the rain.
You are powerful even when you don't know you are. So believe in yourself that you can handle whatever comes yo... Continue reading ...
You Are Beautiful

You are beautiful.
Inside and out.
Your beauty glows and
lights up the world.
It shines brighter than
any coin or diamond,
it is more stunning than
the most gorgous painting,
it is warmer than
the most perfect summer day.
Your beauty is
your unique gift to the world.
And yet, some days
you hide it.
You don't believe in
your beauty
for whatever reason.
But I say
your beauty is what
sets you apart
from all the rest.
You can't hide it,
you can't deny it,
so embrace it.
Because your beauty

To Yourself Be True

Sometimes the questions
don't get answered.
Sometimes life will not
deal the best hand.
Sometimes it will not
make sense at the time
but it is always
within the plan.
It can be hard to trust,
to understand the reasons why,
but it might not be clear
why you now have tears to cry.
So let the sorrow flow,
release it from your heart and mind,
but while you deal with these feelings,
make sure to yourself you're kind.
There are lessons to be learned,
growth in the way you live and love,

Practicing Thoughtfulness

~One from the archives. Enjoy!~
Here’s
an interesting word to contemplate – thoughtfulness. What does that
mean, exactly? Maybe it means we can tear apart a subject with the best
of them by looking at the topic deeply or asking a lot of questions.
There have been times that, in my discussions with people, we've had
mind blowing revelations. (You've had those experiences too, right?)
Or
maybe it means taking other people’s feelings or reactions into account
before doing something. ... Continue reading ...
What Can Love Do?

There is love all around in eyes, hearts and hands. The world has lots of potential for love to be part of the plan.
It's free to give and receive, it can turn around the bad, it can heal the hardest hearts and make the sad turn glad.
It takes a lot of risk to love, to send it to all you meet, but once you unleash it wildly it's one of the sweetest treats.
Love brings the lightest feelings, happiness, joy and celebration it has power to move mountains, it can gently change a nation.
So on Cupid's day, when he... Continue reading ...
You Are Inspiration
Posted by Mary D'Alba on Friday, February 12, 2010,
You are inspiration. Really. There are people in your life who you make smile every day. You lift their heart and their emotions. You give them a shoulder to lean on and you tell them the truth, even if it's painful to hear. You mean so much to them, just by being who you are. Your kindness and love is what sets you apart and to those that are you biggest fans, you change their life. Remind yourself when you're having a bad day or a crazy day, there are those in your life that love you and are inspired by who ... Continue reading ...
To Do List
Posted by Mary D'Alba on Wednesday, February 10, 2010,
Do you have a dream list?
That list you want to accomplish
as your life moves forward -
yeah, one of those.
What do you have on there?
Some want money and fame
others want family and friends
some want to jump out of a plane
others just want to retire early.
What's on your list?
Are there things that make you better?
Things that inspire others?
Or just THINGS - things that could
disappear quickly.
Are they just dreams and wishes
or are you serious about accomplishing them?
Consider it's not ju... Continue reading ...

Has there been a time in your
life that you decided to do something different? Finally! You know
what you want to do with your life!
And then all of a sudden -
all that fear, the doubts, the past, the things you “must do” - hold
you back. “That idea is crazy”, “Why would you do something so silly?”
for example, those are the voices that tug at you, sometimes not so
softly, to stop you. And many times, they do.
What is all the muck that comes into your life to stop you from w... Continue reading ...

Try again.
When it seems hopeless
and out of reach,
frustrating and maddening,
and not in your control,
Try again.
When it strikes fears -
of failure, of success,
of the unknown, you won't know
how it be will unless you
Try again.
When you don't think
you have enough strength,
stamina or smarts,
when you're ready to
cover your head,
Try again.
When others are telling you
that you can't but
there is a little voice inside
saying "you can",
Try again.
When you tried one
or one hundred times

Let It Take Shape

It has no shape right now
it's just sits, it needs your inspiration
and you look at it,
wondering where to start.
How do you mold it?
What can you do to give it shape?
So you take hold
work on it, using your hands
to make it something special.
You take a break,
look at it with different eyes,
start over sometimes,
but you keep working.
Making it beautiful,
making it your own.
It takes shape,
it gains personality,
it is yours.
No one can change it
quite like you can.
No one can shape it

You can do anything
you set your mind to do
your focus getting you going
there is nothing
that can stand in your way
unless you allow it to happen
When you say "I'm too old", "I can't",
"I won't even try",
then your mind says "You're right"
and nothing happens.
But when you say
"I can do the work",
"I can do it", "I can make it happen",
your mind says "Okay!"
and gets to work helping you!
It will come up with creative,
ingenious ways to lead you
to accomplish your goals.

There is beauty is whatever you see
what comes into focus
what you chose to look at
you can view it through clear or cloud eyes
There is value is what you experience
the joys and the sorrows
the irritations and the natural flow
all of it makes you who you are
There is life in your dreams
they just need extra attention
and a little love and care
to breathe on their own
There is determination in your soul
it may be quiet but it sits waiting
your passion will bring it out when ready
