Find Your ilene

You must find someone who inspires you, who believes in all your wild ideas, who isn't afraid of dreaming and does a good deal of it themselves. Beware those who give advice out of fear and/or anger. Check their words (and yours--we are our own worst critic ofttimes). These are some of my "Ilenes":

Biking through the poppy and wheat fields of Normandie, France.

Catching the Bus on the Isle of Wight

COME ALIVE

"DON'T ASK WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS. ASK WHAT MAKES YOU COME ALIVE, AND GO DO IT. BECAUSE WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS IS PEOPLE WHO HAVE 

COME ALIVE."
