Lay down your regrets, because all you have is now!

"Life is a journey, not a destination. There are no mistakes, just chances we take. And lay down your regrets, because all you have is now." I heard this quote, and it will forever be embedded in my mind!

I never want to regret missing out on time spent with family...


I never want to regret not relishing in the title of being "Aunt" for this sweet niece of mine, every chance I get...




I never want to regret not taking the time to see the beauty in the artwork of a child...


I never want to regret not giving love back to those four-legged friends who love us unconditionally...


I never want to regret not basking in the beauty that surrounds us...


And lastly, I never want to regret not taking a moment to thank God every day for having this woman to call my mom.... (I thought this was a great picture).


So that was my Valentine's Day all wrapped up in those pictures. Got to spend it with my mom and beautiful niece. We got to watch her overnight while my brother and sister-in-law went away and had a Valentine's overnighter. She is such a ball of fire and so fun to be around. She's the cutest thing I've ever laid my eyes on, of course I'm a little biased :o)

Back to the whole intention and meaning of this, many of us go through life living with regrets, including myself. I challenge you today and myself, to put those regrets aside, and make it a beautiful day!!! :o)
