Thank you for keeping the color in my wings when all can seem so dark.
............... > YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE < ...............
You are a curious person, always in a state of awareness.
Connected to all things spiritual, you are very connected to your soul.
You are wise and bright: able to reason and be reasonable.
Occasionally, you get quite depressed and have dark feelings.
You have great vision and can be very insightful.
In fact, you are often profound in a way that surprises yourself.
Visionary souls like you can be the best type of friend.
You are intuitive, understanding, sympathetic, and a good healer.
Souls you are most compatible with: Old Soul and Peacemaker Soul

~::: I live a day at a time. Each day I look for a kernel of excitement. In the morning I say: "What is my exciting thing for today?" Then, I do the day. Don't ask me about tomorrow :::~ .::: Barbara Jordan :::.

~::: Be careful with your mouth, but primarily with your mind ~ do not let evil thoughts start talking to you. Do not let your mouth say words that could perhaps wound your brother or sister. Let your mouth put forth words which are fragrant: words of consolation, courage and hope. It is a person's mouth that reveals their interior inner being :::~ Elder Ephraim ♥
:::~ All I really need to know about how to live and what to do and how to be I learned in kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at school. These are the things I learned:
~ Share everything. ~ Play fair. ~ Don't hit people. ~ Put things back where you found them. ~ Be nice. ~ Clean up your own mess. ~ Don't take things that aren't yours. ~ Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. ~ Learn some and play some. ~ When you go out in the world, hold hands and stick together. ~ Be aware of wonder ::: Remember the little seed in the Styrofoam cup: the roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that.

~Hanging onto resentment is letting someone you despise live rent-free in your head. -- Ann Landers
Inner peace can be reached only when we practice forgiveness. Forgiveness is letting go of the past, and is therefore the means for correcting our misperceptions. -- Gerald Jampolsky
