Love and Friendship

LOVE IS A FORCE MORE FORMIDABLE THAN ANY OTHER. IT IS INVISIBLE- IT CANNOT BE SEEN OR MEASURED, YET IT IS POWERFUL ENOUGH TO TRANSFORM YOU IN A MOMENT, AND OFFER YOU MORE JOY THAN ANY MATERIAL POSSESSION COULD.
-Barbara de Angelis

WHEN YOU STAND ON TRUTH, NO ONE CAN EVER KNOCK YOU DOWN
-Jenny McCarthy
Hi Me Club!
I don’t think I can add too much to this simple and yet so profound statement. Except that we all must remember that our own truths, though they may differ from others, are what make us who owe are. Think hard before you give them up.

WHEN PEOPLE DON’T WANT THE BEST FOR YOU, THEY ARE NOT THE BEST FOR YOU!
-Gayle King
Hi Me CLUB! I certainly love this quote. Sometimes we do not take the lessons handed to us by negative or hurtful people in our lives. We have not learned to put up proper boundaries to only accept the positive, loving people into our worlds. It is our choice who we allow into our hearts, our psyche and our day. I challenge you to look at the people in your life and see who DOES NOT WANT THE BEST FOR YOU. Then ask yourself if YOU DO! Because if you do, then perhaps its time to let some people go.

FEMALE FRIENDSHIPS THAT WORK ARE RELATIONSHIPS IN WHICH WOMEN HELP EACH OTHER TO BELONG TO THEMSELVES.
-Louise Bernikow

Sincere forgiveness isn’t colored with expectations that the other person apologize or change. Don’t worry whether or not they finally understand you. Love them and release them. Life feeds back truth to people in its own way and time.
– Sara Paddison

Hello ME CLUB,
Forgiveness is one of the hardest things to accomplish. We have so many hurts and wounds from others. But this quote says it all. So often when we forgive someone we want them “to get us”. And often that never happens. Forgiveness is not for them. It is for us. They will learn their lessons in their own time. The lesson of forgiveness is your lesson. And the prize is your finally being free of the pain and sadness of being hurt….. whether they ever know you have forgiven them or not…it does not matter.

“Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down.”
-Oprah Winfrey

Me Club,

A perfect quote to remind us of what a true friend is. Though we all want the limo every day, life sometimes gives us a bus ride! If you get that bus… I hope you are surrounded by people who make you laugh, help you carry your load and have dreams of the same destination as you do!

‎”Never grow a wishbone, daughter, where your backbone ought to be.”
– Clementine Padelford

Wishing…doing…wishing...doing…
This wonderful quote is a reminder that being brave in a situation, taking action to change something is the only powerful choice. I know, it is much easier to say on paper. I have had many clients needing to leave unhealthy relationships Or they need the strength to stand up to someone who is wronging them. Yet, the only action they take is sitting in my office and wishing the other person would change. The wishing does nothing. Sometimes you need to practice your belief in yourself and stand strong…stand strong and demand what is right for you. No one can tell you what it is. But here is a clue… if you are wishing for someone else to change…look again. Maybe its YOU who needs to change.
