Words of wisdom

Ann Voskamp's advice for us today is to
Live low and trash your anger. Be kind and be gentle and be thankful. Only Speak Words that make Souls Stronger.
By living low, Ann means to live in constant prayer, under the Cross, in service to our fellow humans.

When the heart’s a bit bitter, better still the tongue. Tongues are tails of the heart. Trust your tongue only when your heart is tender.

25 Grace Points

Ann Voskamp has developed this graphic to depict her 25 Point Sanity Manifesto for 2014. In her blog post here she elaborates on each of the 25 points.

Make Laughter Your Chocolate

Your work is Art: It needs a soundtrack

Step on the Snake

Stay in the Pool (Don't get distracted)

Go Slow. Life’s so extraordinary it warrants going slow, held in reverential awe.

Everything you say yes to, you say no to something else.

Are your yeses forcing you to say no to what you really want to say yes to?

Count gifts. Write down three things each day you are grateful for.

Tomorrow always begins with the night before, so turn in early so tomorrow can turn out well.
