Smile. And be Grateful.

“If the only prayer you say in your life is ‘thank you,’ that would suffice.” – Meister Eckhart

Gratitude. It's the quality of being thankful; ready to show appreciation for and to return kindness, counting your blessings, noticing simple pleasures, and acknowledging everything that you receive. It means learning to live your life as if everything were a miracle, and being aware on a continuous basis of how much you’ve been given. Gratitude shifts your focus from what your life lacks to the abundance that is already present.

Gratefulness is the best personality trait, a grateful heart will always have more than it needs, although a greedy heart will never have enough.
It brings you joy, it brings you relief, it reduces your stress, and it helps you grow....
Keep growing, keep learning they say, Keep thanking, keep smiling I say :)

Unity...It starts with YOU!

"Unity... it starts with YOU, ends with WE and brings SUCCESS."  ~Annanya Desai    If we all remain united, we will not be defeated. Even when everyone on planet Earth is going through difficult times, it makes the situation look much better when we realize that we are all going through it.... together, to realize that everyone understands and is there for you. We all know the story of a farmer and his quarrelling sons. The sons could each easily break a single stick, but when several were made into a bunch neither of them could break it. The sons then recognised the value of unity and gave up their quarells. We understand from this that peace and success come from from overcoming our differences. If together we are unable to do so we will all 'fall', only to learn our lesson and get back up together. Unity is strength...and if we all no matter our race, gender, ethnicity, etc.. come together and work towards a common purpose we are more likely to succeed. During thes...

Dance and how it moulds me.

Image
 I have been dancing since I was only 3 years old, me now being 11 have been dancing all my life.  Ever since I started going to my dance class, I feel like I find myself and connect with me through dance. It is my safe place, whenever I am sad, frustrated, mad or even happy I go dance. Dancing helps me feel better, it helps me be better. Whenever I dance I feel like i know who i am, i feel like I am not lost anymore, I feel like I am at home. Dancing makes me smile during the darkest days and let's me enjoy the days when the sun is up and bright. I do ballet, but am very fond of other dance styles, like hip hop, contemporary and many more.   Recently I went to a national dance competition, where me and my fellow dancers won the first and second place. I know I will get more opportunities and I am forever ready to take them on.
