Believe!!

With all the changes that have been occuring in my  life recently, I have found myself leaning on my faith more often and trying to accept that the challenges that have been coming my way are actually a gift.  
Although it is difficult to see clearly while going through a tough situation , it seems that the knowledge and growth that I receive after the challenge makes it not so bad. 
I'm adopting a new attitude and counting my blessings - after all there is always someone who would love to trade problems with you and it makes me feel like mine are too bad after all. So to start, I am following a few tips

* Try Even When You Still Think You Can't Do It
* Any Effort, Regardless  Of The Outcome Is Better Than No Effort At All
* Recognize The Possibilities
* Realize That "This Too Shall pass"

I am starting a new series of signs titled "Believe.." Here is the first of many to come.  Check back often as I am always adding new items to my shop.

 If you are interested in ordering one in your own custom colors or design, let me know and I would love to work with you!

Believe in Heavenly Things

Listen to Your Children ♥♥♥

LISTEN to your children, they speak in such a beautiful, unspoiled, innocent language. The mistake we make as adults is that we see it as our responsibility to teach children about life, when in reality they hold the key to reminding us, as adults made cynical by this world, who we really are.
Chidren represent all that is pure in this world and we could learn so much if we just listened to them. - Mamadou

Our limitations - Words of Wisdom

You are the primary power source for your own limitations. Every time you say, out loud or to yourself,” I could never do that" you are affirming your limitations. That little voice can say anything you want it to say. Listen to what you're telling yourself, think about it. Do you really need to be criticizing and limiting yourself? Start being supportive of YOU and watch how quickly your world changes for the better - Mamadou
