“Only you can take inner freedom away from yourself,
or give it to yourself. Nobody else can.” Michael A. Singer
saturday afternoon
noticing the sunshine
noticing the words in this book
that speak directly to me
noticing the flavors in my chai
noticing tiny bits of joy
Tea & Paper 
Such a special book. I just finished it last weekend and loved every page too. It spoke directly to my soul too xxx

A great quote/reminder. We experience it when we start noticing.

this is bliss my dear, to know someone we care about (you in this case!) feels this joy, in the tiny bits, in the smell of chai, a smell i am familiar with. we are the only ones that can allow ourselves to feel small or appreciated, it is really up to us. beautiful thoughts as always that speak to my heart
