Quote of the Day


Good day friends! Today's quote is an excerpt from a book my dear friend gave me...Simple Abundance. It is truly more inspiring and moving than I ever expected. If you don't have it please treat yourself...... 

This excerpt is one that resonates with me right now...

The magic seeds of contentment are planted deep within us. Happiness that the world cannot take away only flourishes in the secret garden of our souls. By tending to our inner garden and uprooting the weeds of  external expectations, we can nurture our authentic happiness the way we would nurture something that's beautiful and alive.

author Sarah Ban Breathnach

I love that book! Beautiful quotation. If you like that author, you'd probably also enjoy books by Alexadra Stoddard- Living a Beautiful Life and Creating a Beautiful Home (I think those are the titles- I'm just trying to remember off the top of my head so I may be off). :-)

Oops- should read Alexandra not Alexadra.
