Dear Difference Maker,

Tomorrow summer is officially here!  I hope you are planning fun things …

“Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August.” – Jenny Han, The Summer I Turned Pretty

“In June, as many as a dozen species may burst their buds on a single day. No man can heed all of these anniversaries; no man can ignore all of them.” – Aldo Leopold

“On this June day the buds in my garden are almost as enchanting as the open flowers. Things in bud bring, in the heat of a June noontide, the recollection of the loveliest days of the year – those days of May when all is suggested, nothing yet fulfilled.” – Francis King

I hope that this summer is a beautiful and relaxing time for you and your loved ones. Take a moment to take a breath and enJOY your 1st Day of Summer eGreeting Card today …

Embracing Brings Acceptance

IT IS DIFFICULT TO ADMIT THAT you have been misguided or wrong in some way. It brings up feelings from childhood of being “little-little,” or “powerless.”

In understanding this, it is easier to accept quickly that you’ve made a mistake. Embracing yourself in these moments heals your innermost fear of not being good enough or being child­ like and powerless.

Embrace yourself for being who you are.  Be gentle with that “little-little” boy or girl inside you who feels shamed for responding to the world in unskilled, unsophisticated or child-like ways.

Embrace yourself, for you have just done what was familiar and what you believed would work. Accept that you can change anything about yourself that you want with patience, perseverance and gentle guidance.

Embrace yourself and embrace others who are striving to heal their lives with the opportunities that life offers.

Your only obligation
in any lifetime
is to be true to yourself.
-RICHARD BACH
