May your weekend be filled with quiet, not the kind that comes from weakness but the kind filled with the sacred strength of a humble leader, a brave servant, a thoughtful friend.
Be wise with your words before you let them loose from your mouth. Be a person who moves into the world with her whole heart, because you have been made complete.
In the inspiring words of John O’Donohue: “May you learn to see yourself with the same delight, pride, and expectation with which God sees you in every moment.”
Enjoy your weekend, friends.

Thank you for sharing these beautiful words. You are really living out what you are writing here. Your words are so thoughtfully and carefully chosen that just a small few do the work of hundreds. Inspiring…

Those are the most beautiful words I’ve read in a long time. They reach out and wrap around me for a hug. Thank you for the encouragement … and I’ll be sharing this post with a friend who I know will appreciate them, too. Have a wonderful weekend!

Always love your “May your weekends…”
Latest update on daughter reading your book… She’s almost finished reading. Her comment today was, *Mom, this is soooo me. I feel like I’m always trying to be a good girl but, I just can’t be perfect.”
Sigh. So is your next book gonna be about good girl moms raising good girl daughters??? Ha! (wink)

Ok Emily, clearly you’re going to bring me to tears during these 31 Days.
Thank you

This is a great reminder to always think before we speak. Our words can hurt another person when just
thrown at them without thinking.
Thank you so much for these words, Emily – I needed to hear them!
