We can choose to be anything, do anything, & explore anywhere. There is but the only limitation of the calling we hear repeated throughout our lives. Will we be that? Do that? Go there? It's hard, scary, & beautiful. Are we listening? #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 Inspiredtowrite #BmoreArt

Our stories are designed to intersect, but they are not the same. We encounter each other, always in the middle of the other story. Much has happened that has nothing to do with us. Acknowledging that makes friction less personal. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 Action for Happiness #FridayFeeling

There are days when darkness overcomes us. It lingers longer and blots out the light, the hope, the potential for joy. It does not have the power of the light — the darkness will be overcome by the dawn. And that light will shine! #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 charlos colson.app #MondayMotivation

How we relate to one another defines our legacy of hope or darkness. The work we’re willing to do in our darkness enables us to make that choice. We can linger in the light or spread out in the shadows. That choice is ours. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @topherkearby #TransformationTuesday

Why are we forced to plumb the depths of darkness to find our light? We’re stretched thin, laid bare, & experience unparalleled fear. Yet here, in the pitch black, we find the source of our light so that we may shine it brightly. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 iuliastration #WellnessWednesday

Have courage. Be strong. There are influencers among us who would have us believe things we know aren’t right. They are persuasive, and their voices will echo. Test what you hear against what you know is right. Stand for that. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @tobymacspeaklife #MondayMotivation

It appears at times that the world is orchestrated to be full of distractions — one thing after another vyes for our attention. To clear out the noise and focus on our goals, we must be willing to prune out what isn’t needed. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 GUSTAFF #TransformationTuesday

Perspective is an interesting thing. We all have our own unique points of view, yet that’s not really the same. POV is fixed & limited— perspective zooms in & out beyond one’s POV. We all see, but not all understand the alien’s perspective. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 The Paris Review #BmoreArt

The timing doesn’t always have to be perfect, but it does need to be right. When we wait for the ideal moment to act, it may pass us by without us even noticing. When it’s right, we’ll hear our music playing and know it’s our time. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @markanthonypoet #FridayFeeling

As long as we have breath in our lungs and hope in our hearts — it’s not too late to act. We can take the leap into a new world of discoveries. Sometimes the hope comes on the way down and bravery is required. Deep breaths now! #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @toyoufromsteph #MondayMotivation

Happiness, as we define it today, is a fleeting pursuit of discontentment. It eludes our capture because it is ever found in the next thing. Whereas thankfulness is ever mindful of the past, present & future. It appreciates. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @davidgatepoet #TransformationTuesday

Healing is a process that takes time. The poison may have entered our bodies in an instant, but to ensure it’s all gone, we slowly draw it out. It requires strength, softness, patience, & steadfastness. We’ll have the scar to remember.#TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @wordporm #WellnessWednesday

Self-control is not the ability to control how we feel. Feelings are reactions to memories, moments, what may come. They are not intentional. Self-control or lack thereof is what we do with those feelings. How will we respond? #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 NICHOLAS MEGALIS #FridayFeeling

Our stories are filled with new beginnings. They may feel like a series of starts and stops or disjointed tales of woe, but they are one continuous narrative. We can write new lines and begin new chapters of hope at any moment. Now? #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 Ann Voskamp #MondayMotivation

What do your notes say? Do they say we’re unworthy, unloved, uncommitted, & uninspired? We’re not stuck with those. We can write new ones that tell our future selves how valuable we are. Today, we can commit to being inspired by us. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 Thrive Global #TransformationTuesday

The wind & waves do not obey our words. They press against us, tossing & turning our plans upside down. The storm doesn’t care for our heading. Ever forward, we move with our eyes fixed on the prize. This is the way — the way we go! #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 Fabian Lavater #MondayMotivation

We don’t change our stars by dreaming small. It will take many small shifts in our direction — our presence. If we’re willing to work hard, stay focused, and make those changes each day, then those stars will change our dreams. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @demitebow #TransformationTuesday

We forget just how unstable the world is. The terrain is rough, uneven, & winding. We’re constantly losing & finding our footing as we balance here. We can learn much from the journeys we’ve taken that will keep us going. #TerraFirma🌱 🎨 @latteoflovedesigns #WellnessWednesday
