Relections Continued

The beautiful character traits that defined you… the same subtly disregarded traits that seemed to slip away through an inadvertent lack of nurture and appreciation, have been returned to you….and they are rightfully yours… cherish them. When we seem to have lost our ability to recognize our greatest qualities, we must have faith that affirmation will be returned through the hearts of others. We all possess a ‘lost and found department’ within our hearts that allows us to identify the artistry within others, and provides the foundation from which theses traits can be returned if temporarily ‘lost’. This sanctuary within our hearts allows us to encourage others to shine when their inner glow has faded… the ability to encourage and inspire others when their core has become burdened is the greatest gift of all. If this gift is not shared, do not feel as though it fails to exist, it merely becomes dormant. Inspiration… LOVE… must never be selfishly hoarded, you must give it away to allow it to be returned…and be assured, it will be. Today I have bestowed my belief in you… will you be accountable for tomorrow? Dave Blount January 8th 2011
