This week's inspiring quote:
Seen or heard any words that inspired you? Let me know!
This week's inspiring photo helps us remember that no matter
what, positivity will find its way through any storm. But to help it on its
journey, you need to be in the right environment. Positivity feeds on
positivity, not envy, not jealousy; all the negatives in the world. That's why
groups form, cliques stay together, true friends can reconnect across thousands
of miles and many years silence. If you don't believe in yourself, how can
anyone else?
To add to my inspirational photo, I give you this week's
inspiring song:
Ben Harper and Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam, 'Indifference':
This version shows the lyrics:
This song sits in my soul so deeply it hurts. It
demonstrates the power of communication - that the intended message is not
always the one received.
I'm sure Eddie never intended it to remind me of my
bullied childhood, and the fact that I used this track as an anchor of strength
in my difficult twenties when I felt so alone.
But it did.
And it gave me the
strength to beat the haters in my life at that time.
Respect to the power of
the Word.
Have any songs that make the hairs on your neck stand up,
that got you through the tough times, or just plain inspired you?
Drop me a
link and I'll post them!
A story I saw on the web this week made my heart smile.
We should stand up to bullying. Let's get it gone.
Seen any heart-warming stories on the web or in the news?
Send me details and I'll post them for everyone to watch or read!
I offer this advice to all parents:
Let me know your experiences of parenthood - successes or
(!) disasters! I'll post the best! (Anonymity guaranteed if you like!)
Finally, I bring you this week's highlighted charity:
The British Heart Foundation.
I bet every single one of you knows someone with a heart
complaint of some type or description.
You may be that person.
Those of us who have had open heart surgery call ourselves members of The Zipper Club.
This charity
does amazing work in this area of medicine and research.
Check them out here for details:
They could certainly use your help!

That's it for this week, folks!
I hope you've found something here to inspire or motivate
you, or just plain make you smile!
Have an awesome week, keep believing in yourself, and I'll
see you again next week, my friend!
Until then; keep shining!
Thanks for this :)
