Give Sunday | 16
This year, in honor of my 2015 One Little Word® "give," I'm sharing a hand-drawn quote each Sunday here on my blog.
I found this quote from Cheryl Strayed (author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things: Advice on Love and Life from Dear Sugar) this week on Erin's Design For Mankind blog within a post titled: Hair, Today. That post is definitely worth a read today - lovely perspective. Love the idea of contemplating what things we are hanging on to that are no longer needed - physically, emotionally, spiritually.

Have a wonderful Sunday.
THIS!!! Things in the Universe must be lining up because I really needed to hear this today and it posted a day early. Coincidence? Maybe not! Thank you Universe (and Ali ;)

Ali, Great quote.
I don't know if you follow this blog but I thought of you and your Parisian Adventures and thought you would enjoy. My 'give' to you. Enjoy your weekend.

Ali, for me, this is the best quote you've shared yet. I know I'm not the same woman I was and my wants, desires, dreams, personality, etc are so different from 20 years ago, 5 years ago. We're constantly changing along with life circumstances. Before reading your blog this morning I had just came across an email from my sister from 2010 and we were discussing bible teacher/author Sheila Walsh. My sister passed away in 2012. She was such an incredible source of wisdom to me. I hear her voice in my heart. This quote you shared today is something my sister would say to me. Thanks for sharing this.

I was scrolling through my insta feed and this quote stopped me in my tracks. Just what I needed. As I've spent much of the last couple days mentally re-hashing some things that I truly need to let go of. Because they are taking my joy, stirring up a pity party, thinking that things used to be better when . . . but all this is going to get me nowhere. Thank you, thank you!

Just what I need... Thank you, Ali.

Yes! My word of the year is release, based on this sentence of the year, if you will, which I heard in yoga on New Year's Day:
When we let go of the things we no longer need, we make room for beautiful, wonderful new things.

Ali, as a cancer survivor with difficulties caused by treatment -- today I want my old self back. I really need to give myself something -- encouragement to be who I am now and encouragement that I am still worthy.
