I’ve always been an Oprah fan and I used read her magazine each month.  My favorite part of the magazine was on the last page, which she would call “What I Know for Sure.” She would share a snippet of truth from her heart and it always inspired me.

I wanted to do my own “What I Know For Sure” on my 35th birthday, and to share with you some things about life, love, and people, that I’ve learned along my way through life so far…

What I know for sure…

I am a child of God

There is always enough



Hurting people hurt people

God never wastes pain

The days are long but the years are short

Your heart will be broken, but there is always a way for it to be restored and renewed

A little kindness goes a long way

Save yourself the energy and just let people be who they are

When in doubt, go for a long walk

Whether you like me or not, it’s none of my business

Mothers should rule the world

Let it go

Your body is your body, accept it

We are spiritual beings having a physical experience

Be a fountain, not a drain

Loving yourself is not always easy, but necessary

There is always hope

The world is full of surprises and wonder

The joy of the Lord is my strength

Hand written letters are still the best form of communication

We need to stop comparing ourselves; what a waste of our unique and beautiful precious lives.

Give when it’s hard

Tell them you love them

I am becoming my mother
