Quotable Monday: Renewal

Spring and Easter always remind me of the word renewal more than New Year's day does. I feel an energy course through my veins, I search out new hobbies and I look for ways to improve my little corner of the world. This year there is a sense that the improvement will be much on me than a garden or buying something new to finish decorating my house. These days I am looking for things that enrich and renew my soul.

"“I couldn't imagine living in a state that didn't reach the 

ocean. It was a giant reset button. You could go to the edge of 

the land and see infinity and feel renewed.” 

― Avery Sawyer, Notes to Self

“What is the scent of water?"

"Renewal. The goodness of God coming down like dew.” 

― Elizabeth Goudge, The Scent of Water

“focus your intention on what your building, not whats 

already fallen away.” 

― Nikki Rowe

“Life is like a flowing stream; once the flow stops, our life 

becomes stagnant. When we remove the dams and debris we 

have accumulated and encourage it to flow freely, it becomes

 a source of sustenance and renewal and growth for us and 

for all with whom we share it.” 

― Tom Hackett

“Relax, Recharge, Renew, Restored.” 

― Lailah Gifty Akita
