INSPYRING words for a fresh start to a new month...

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." - Marilyn Monroe

INSPYRE IT FORWARD!

"INSPYRE IT FORWARD" is the act of one person inspyring another and then they pass the inspyration on. It is my wish for the world that inspyration will spread on and on and so on and so on. It's all about encouraging others to INSPYRE IT FORWARD... 

It works like this: 

Dream It ~ Live It ~ Green It ~ INSPYRE IT!

Throughout my experiences in life I've learned that nothing is to big or to small to give when it's given with best intent and a genuine loving heart.

Never Take A Person For Granted

Never take a person for granted. Hold every person close to your heart because you might wake up one day and realize that you've lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones...

There are many times in our lives we "give" and think to ourselves "am I giving too much", "will I be taken for granted" or "I feel depleted". But yet we continue to give more and yet a little more. If you are giving from the heart with best intent, remember you are a "diamond" not a "stone".  You can and will make a positive difference by respecting and being true to yourself. Allow no one to minimize the goodness of what you do and why you do it. 

SHINE BRIGHT LIKE A DIAMOND IN A SPOTLIGHT!

Orama Pictures ~ THREE CANDLES

THREE CANDLES: The true life accounts of the innocent women exiled into concentration camps during Greece's tumultuous Civil War (1946-1949).

FILMMAKERS: Stavroula Toska and Sophia Antonini (Orama Pictures)

Narrated by: Olympia Dukakis 

“I was born and raised in Greece and had no idea about all this.  Sure, I knew about WWII, but there is nothing more than a paragraph in the Greek textbooks about the Civil War.  When I begun researching this period I discovered so much about my country's history.  I was equally shocked and proud to learn about the role Greek women played during that era." ~Stavroula Toska (Co-director and producer)
