I believe that within me lies an extraordinary radiance,
and I commit to letting my light loose on the world.
I believe that the source of my power and wisdom is in the center of my being,
and I commit to acting from this place of strength.
I believe that I possess an abundance of passion and creative potential,
and I commit to the expression of these gifts.
I believe that the time has come to let go of old notions and unhealthy attitudes,
and I commit to re-examine what I've been told about beauty and dismiss what insults my soul.
I believe that negative thoughts and words compromise my well-being,
and I commit to thinking and speaking positively about myself and others.
I believe that young women are in need of positive role models,
and I commit to being an example of authenticity and self love.
I believe in the relationship to care for my body with respect, kindness and compassion.
I commit to balancing my life in such a way that my physical being is fully expressed and nurtured.
I believe that joy is essential part of wellness,
and I commit to removing any obstacles to joy and creating a life that is full of exuberance.
I believe that a woman who loves herself is a powerful, passionate and attractive force
and I commit from this day forward to loving myself deeply and extravagantly.

Thanks so much for your awesome comment and congratulations! Haha! I guess I'm kinda private about my personal life (I've always been like that). But the Elie Saab dresses had me so excited that I had to share the news :)
"you can wear a gown made of stapled copy paper and you would still look amazing!" - you made my day! Hahaha!

Your blog is so beautiful. Love it!!!! :-)
I always look so forward to your Friday Frills - as it appears many of your readers do! (That just speaks to how lovely and genuine you are dear.) I always end up printing out your Friday posts and hanging them up, they're so inspiring and they always make me want to work towards being a better person.
I am going to have a frivolous moment and say that this that is such a dreamy dress, I cant get over the skirt on it, it's so beautifully made. And then I realized there was an adorable bunny and it was compete love for me. I LOVE bunnies! I use to have one when I was little, I use to let her out of her pen all of the time so I could see my godfather try to catch her with a net. (I was very naughty and he was always so kind to catch my little bunny, he loved animals so much that he'd make her little toys to play with.)
Sorry, got a little off track there! (It was the bunny. Too cute.)
Love,loooove!Have a great weekend,babe!

Sam you continue to make every friday so positive and uplifting with the way you bring us these beautiful quotes and poems. I love these beautiful lines, one that really speak to me is "I believe that young women are in need of positive role models and I commit to being an example of authenticity and self love." Stunning and so true :)
Take care,

Sam, I love this quote, absolute fantastic and very inspiring! The parts I loved most are 2:"I believe that negative thoughts and words compromise my well-being, and I commit to thinking and speaking positively about myself and others" and "I believe that joy is essential part of wellness,
and I commit to removing any obstacles to joy and creating a life that is full of exuberance". So so true!! I proved that if you think positive without mental drama you live better and keep to be concentrated, as well I think that happiness and laughter make you feel well, and need to laugh also when everything seems to be wrong because in a way or other it will be fixed!:) You know in what believe dear, in ourselves and the big potential everyone has inside:)) Kisses and happy friday!!:*
Yes, yes, and yes! I agree with all of them. We must always, always strive for the best version of ourselves. :)
P.S. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
