I’ve been listening to both children (no surprise there) and adults alike talking about why things happen the way they happen. Responses range from “so unfair!” (kiddos, in case you can’t tell) to “why am I being persecuted?” It’s always interesting to hear everyone else’s perspective.

I guess life events aren’t something I take personally these days. My teachable moment was pretty huge, though. I didn’t “deserve” to have breast cancer, but that didn’t stop cancer from happening. I don’t believe God was “angry at me” or that I was a terrible person in some past existence I cannot remember.

I know my worth – most of the time. 😉 I think we all forget at times that we are deserving of the life of our dreams. So, today’s quotes are about worthiness.

“Worthiness doesn’t have prerequisites.” ~ Brene Brown

“With every experience, you alone are painting your own canvas: thought by thought, choice by choice.” ~ Oprah Winfrey

“Self-worth comes from one thing – thinking that you are worthy.” ~ Wayne Dyer (In my experience, if you do not think you are worthy, no amount of success or gratification of any kind will make you feel that way.)

“Before you can win, you have to believe you are worthy.” ~ Mike Ditka

Food for thought for you all on a Friday night. Blessings, and remember – Never Give Up!
