Being Connected

Today I am thankful for being connected....to people, to life, to ideals, to dreams, to places....there are days when it inspires me and days when I curse it, days when I am tired....but we all need each other, no one can go it alone and it's that love and support and being part of something.....and someone that gives life it's meaning


We were not put on this earth alone.  The true joy of living is in the connections we develop.  It is those connections that give richness and meaning to life...it is those connections that bring us joy and love and a whole array of other emotions.  It isn't always easy.  Sometimes it's difficult to maintain connections...difficult to hold onto each other.  But I think we need to make it a priority in our life.  We need to remind ourselves that it isn't all about what makes life better for us...but what makes life better for those we are connected to....and when life is better for them, it will, in turn, be better for us

My connections....to the dreams I have, to what I believe in, to special places.....and most importantly, to some amazing people are what make life good and beautiful and the reason I get up every day and put one foot in front of the other.  My connections are the meaning of my life.

"We're all wonderful, beautiful wrecks.  That's what connects us--that we're all broken, all beautifully imperfect."
