Thriving

Here’s Something to Feel Good About!

We all have obstacles to overcome; times that seem overwhelming that stretch us to our limits. The idea is to grow beyond our limitations to expand beyond what we feel capable of and stretch further than we ever thought possible. Life is all about change and how we deal with it has everything to do with our attitude towards what confronts us. We are all survivors of a sort, and we all have the power to thrive, the choice is ours to make.

Try looking at your life from a higher vantage point. See yourself as a spiritual being on a journey that is temporary and not to be taken too seriously. Learn to thrive as you live with passion, humor and compassion for others.

“The best part of life is not just surviving, but thriving with passion and compassion and humor and style and generosity and kindness.”
—Maya Angelou
(1928-); Poet, Dancer, Producer, Playwright, Director, Author

About the Author : Marlene

My passion has always been storytelling whether that involves writing or imagery. Following this passion, I built a 20-year career licensing my unique hand painted illustrations and product designs to renowned companies in the gift, paper, and home décor categories. My clients include Waterford Wedgwood, Tiffany & Co., George Caspari, Shurman Fine Papers, Block China, Simon & Schuster, Random House, Cartier, Shaw Living, Stephen Lawrence, and many more. To view samples of my artwork, just go to http://www.createdigitalart.com/designers/marlene.php. Now, my passion has taken me to blogging, compiling, and sharing stories of people who in their own small way have made a difference in someone’s life; stories that have the amazing ability to reawaken our senses to experience everything that is and can be good in the world and connect us with each other.
