QUOTES by L RAE BROWN



Your Life is not about YOU. Your Life is about what you can do for others. You can bang your head as long as you want - thinking it's about "you". When you finally decide to do for others first - then you (and not before) will learn and receive what you truly want & deserve in your Life. 

I don't mean let yourself get used and abused by others, so don't get that twisted.     If you can look at a situation (any situation) and automatically be able to ask yourself "how can this benefit others" - rather than "how can this benefit ME" - You have made a leap to your destiny.

I truly believe that we all possess a gift, a talent, original to any ones. Why should You, We or I, play small to anyones desire or belief? You & I, we are a gift to this world, to the people in our lives. Don't doubt it, not even for a minute. 
Own that. 
Know it. 
Make your gift your legacy.

Your playing small NEVER serves anyone! 
If it does, then that's something you need to look at...who would be better served by a "less than" you?
Powerful people grounded in love do not need you to be small. Ever.
I truly believe that we all possess a gift, a talent, original to any ones. 
Why should You, we or I, play small to anyones desire or belief? 
You & I, we are a gift to this world, to the people in our lives. 
Don't doubt it, not even for a minute. 
Own that. 
Know it. 
Make your gift your legacy.

My own pain, my own tears, allows me to appreciate those who loves me and shows me love, even more.

My favorite 4 words "Because I said so!"

The truth is in all of us.
The truth is, the result of our current life. 
It's hard for most of us to swallow, but the truth is, 
hard to swallow.
If we're not satisfied with the results 
of our past and present life,
only we have the power, 
to rewrite the story, of our life.

The Ups delivery guy
The Fed Ex delivery woman
and my postal delivery man, comes to my door at the same time.
My 3 kids are home for their winter break, listening in.

The Ups delivery guy, hands me his tablet that I need to sign. Out loud, he says, "I think this is an iPod". The Fed Ex delivery woman says, "hey, I think this package is an iPod too!" They both have a short laugh. I'm looking at both of them with an annoyed facial expression that says, "REALLY?!". 

My postal man was standing behind the two, he proceeds to step forward. He hands me a box and says, "I don't know who's getting this package but I know it has coal inside." 

I LOVE MY POSTAL MAN

PEACE OF MIND

"You can't get a peace of mind from the outside in. 
Peacefulness is from the inside out."

Driving back from a meeting in Chicago this morning, I had this thought.
With all my projects, goals, desires and everything that sets my Heart On Fire. I commend the man who's going to be by my side. Who ever you are, just know, for that simple fact alone, that you're right there by me, through all of this. I'm going to love and respect you, with everything I have - and everything I never knew, I could give to a man.

Commenting on a Post, is giving your opinion. 
Reading the post and the entire thread, is participating in a dialog. Taking a step back and analyzing the POST, the dialog and your comment(s) before you reply, is called; "Social Etiquette" & COMMON SENSE.

This is not a test. This is not a practice. 
This is what you have to do, to be you.

look around you - look at your "posse" - your "friends" - your "click" 
Are you blowing smoke up each others butt? 
If you don't know, you better know.

If we, want to find peace, in our mind, in the people we surround ourselves daily, we have to be brave enough to soften what has become so rough and insecure about our characters. We have to be good to our heart and let it feel the beauty that it's meant to experience. We have to take the responsibility to be good to ourselves, before we can be good for anyone else.

Pay Attention - who you take your advice from. Who you listen to. Pay attention to what goes into your heart and mind. Make sure it's not an imitation of someone's false unpracticed beliefs. Make sure they've conquered their own demons and has already turned their pains into a blessing. Know the difference and be good to yourself.

"Don't be afraid.
Most of them are going to try to judge you, no matter what you do. Hold my hand, I'll take that walk with you. I'll be there with you, to remind you and me - that you are bigger than your fears."

Yet when it arrives and leaves - we are left a stronger person."

Us adults were once a teenager: Why is it we forget to give our teenagers - other people's teenagers - the same understanding we once needed, from adults?

Worrying about something that hasn't happened yet, is like praying for the worst to happen. Remember that.
