Friday Frills




If there was ever a time to dare, to make a difference,

To embark on something worth doing...
IT IS NOW. 

Not for any grand cause, necessarily…
but for something that tugs at your heart,
Something that’s your inspiration, something that’s your dream.

You owe it to yourself to make your days here count. 

HAVE FUN. DIG DEEP. STRETCH. DREAM BIG.

Know, though, that things worth doing seldom come easy.

There will be good days. And there will be bad days.

There will be times when you want to turn around, 
pack it up, and call it quits. 
Those times tell you 
that you are pushing yourself, that you are not afraid to learn by trying. 

PERSIST.
 Because with an idea, determination and the right tools,
 you can do great things. 

Let your instincts, your intellect and your heart, guide you. 

TRUST. 
Believe in the incredible power of the human mind. 

Of doing something that makes a difference.
 Of working hard. Of laughing and hoping.
 
Of lazy afternoons. Of lasting friends. Of all the things that will cross your path this year. 

The start of something new brings the hope of something great,

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

I enjoyed your posting!

It is certain, everything is possible as long as we target, if we have a firm attitude and a strong will, raffle all bad days!

Unknown said...

Lol. For me it is hard to trust. There are so many horrible people that it takes me long to trust people. I know that is something I should be working on.

Another great Friday Frills post, Sam:) Have a fab weekend, my friend.

Lilli said...

Hi Sam! Truly love it! And I totally agree. I know is always easier to say than to do but I really believe that if we put all the strenght, braveness, wish and hope in something we aim for, then anything is really possible. I also think human mind is something incredible, which never stops to surprises us, able to do everything is in its power. And we all got it, we all can do all the things we want, just thinking positive and acting in that way. Thanks for the reminder as always!
Happy Fri my dearest xo

Persist! Have fun, the time is now, everything is possible... Trust! I believe in all these things... I have been living these way for a long time... persisting, believing... and if somehow I don't, cause sometimes things end, I still live for the moment. Life is too short for people to live in a bad way. We have one day, one month, one year, and the time is now! Well, I get emotional when the birthday approaches... it's one day before yours (you asked) :) denisesplanet com

Dressed With Soul said...

Hi dear Sam, I believe in this that anything is possible! And this wonderful Friday frill confirms that it doesn´t make sense anything to postpone or to believe that one is not good or strong enough to achieve something. I´m really thankful for the this what in my opinion is a fact that we get what we give and this means for example if we have the courage for something we will get the reward :)

Happy weekend for you!
