Inspiration Wherever and Whenever

No matter how well you are handling your cancer battle - all of us need a boost now and then.

Here's one way I find especially helpful.

Inside a baggie, I place inspirational cards, letters and quotes. Always kept in my knapsack, whenever my spirit could use some up lifting. I pull it out.

Spending a few moments reading reminds me of the love and concern that surrounds me and why I must remain vigilant in my battle.

Aromatherapy bottles, photos or perhaps fabric pieces, natural objects like stones, pine cones or pressed flowers, Be creative. If it makes you happy - its working.
