“Feeling grateful or appreciative of someone or something in your life actually attracts more of the things that you appreciate and value in your life.” -Christiane Northrup, M. D.
I don’t know where you are in the world, but as I look out my window, all I see are storm clouds that threaten to downpour on my bike ride today! While I am dealing with the literal rain, I am sure that you, or someone you know, is dealing with the metaphorical rain. Those times in life when things are just not going well… and the storm does not seem to be moving. That is exactly why I wanted to share this movie with you, because as Vivian Greene said, “Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass… it’s about learning how to dance in the rain!” Have a happy Tuesday today, rain or shine!
