Affirmation for May 13, 2010: History
When the Japanese mend broken objects, they aggrandize the damage by filling the cracks with gold. They believe that when something's suffered damage and has a history it becomes more beautiful.- Barbara BloomThought of the day:They say you should never have regrets, that every part of your past has meaning and contributes to who you are today. Sometimes it's hard not to have regrets - we all sometimes wish we had done something differently, or that we could erase parts of our past.It's important to remember, especially when we have moments of deep regret, to keep moving forward. Look ahead to an ever brighter future, a new and improved you. When you love yourself, you see the beauty of the yesterdays that led to today, and you look forward to the tomorrows to come.Have a beautiful day!TeamDS

Wow! I must be absolutely gorgeous. What a marvelous way to think of things. Boy, what a little perspective can do for us.
I\'m going to keep repeating to myself - \'gold in the cracks, gold inthe cracks\'... I don\'t care if people think I\'m going nuts, it means something to me!
