Deep rooted in youth
love unconditionally
more practice needed

Vulnerable heart
Tears in waiting if broken
All people the same

Let’s find it in our hearts to practice kindness,
less judgement, more acceptance, and to spread
love exponentially. It’s really that simple.
Wishing you a great start to your week,

Awesome post,and poem, Lauren! Sharing…
Aww, thanks, Bette. I appreciate that! πππ
The old adage “treat people the way you want to be treated” is more appropriate now than ever.
It sure is, Binky. If only everyone could live by this motto…
Thanks, Lauren.
You’re welcome, John, and thank you! π

Beautifully said Lauren…. We each need to get back to that basic respecting of each other and Mother Nature.. Wonderful words and images… and love the Bob Marley.. One Love π We are ONE.. β€ πππ
Thanks, Sue, isn’t it so simple, and yet, so hard for many to follow through? We can keep dreaming and hoping that positive changes do come to fruition, though. Yes, One Love! Many hugs, my friend. πππ

Beautiful message. πβ€οΈπ

β€ Lauren Xx
Thanks, Jane. I’m sure you’re on board here, too. π Hope you’re settled in and doing well. You’ve been missed, my friend…Much love. ππ
Lovely Lauren, I am on board. β€ I had a moment of nuttiness and decided to code a new web site, bringing everything I do together. What was I thinking, as I disappeared down a big rabbit hole with that one. Just emerging now…he he β€ to you all β€
Well, I hope going down that rabbit hole was worthwhile. π Sending much love to you, my friend. πππ
I so hope so. That’s me, ever hopeful! Much β€ β€ β€ flowing to you all. Xx
You have a beautiful heart and mind, Lauren. I really enjoyed this positive post. Listening to Marley. He was a very lovely soul!
Thanks for your beautiful words, Resa. Glad you enjoyed this post, and yes, that song, that soul, just lovely! xo
Hear, hear! β€
So simple, and yet, so difficult. Thanks for stopping by, Eliza.
Very thought provoking Lauren. It shouldn’t need to be said and you write it so perfectly BUT it is sad that so many people don’t feel accepted and feel excluded. Everyone can feel like this on odd occasions from time to time when you can’t get something or are turned down for a job, when you’re told you’re not good enough – but to feel this every day, there needs to be much more support and teaching on how to value what you do have and what you can do.
Thanks, Charlotte, and you add more perfect valid thoughts. I keep saying, “If only…” but need to keep thinking, “Someday…” π
Beautiful words, Lauren! The word βrespectβ continues to surface for me often these past two weeks. Likely, for good reasons. Beautiful photos of the flowers. The circle of people fits perfectly with this post. (And βcircleβ in your future post)xxβ€οΈ
Thanks again, Erica, for your lovely comment. It should be simple, shouldn’t it? We need to keep hope alive that positive changes will come to fruition so this ideal won’t need thought at all; respect and acceptance would simply come naturally. I truly appreciate your kind words. π₯°
Beautiful thoughts, beautiful photos! ππ
Thanks so much, Betty! It really is simple, but then again, apparently not, right? πππ
