"You must be the change you wish to see in the world".-Mahatma Gandhi

On a daily basis I reflect on this quote by Ghandi. I think it's amazing that he actually summed it up in one sentence when it applies to every action and emotion in life.
For my birthday my Mother sent me this gorgeous bracelet from the fabulously talented Simag. Thank you Mumsy, thank you Sima. I love it and I love the reminder. When I see this bracelet I will remember to act with patience, kindness and compassion.

Thank you.

Ironically I had another lovely surprise in the mail almost a year to this date, check it out.

What change do you wish to see in the world?
