Round 2 of HEARTS & SOULS (Unveiled)

Heather from Dietitian on the Run
“After living in 6 states over the past 7 years, I’ve very much learned that home will always be where your heart is. It’s not one set place (though DC does have my heart…), but within those people and things around you that you love.”

Holley from Lunges and Lashes
“We all need to “pull out the good” in our lives a little everyday.”
“This is my heart & soul!
When I am out on a quiet morning run alone with my thoughts, that is when I feel most alive. That is when I know who I am and what I can achieve.”

Natalie from Running, and What Not
“Our daughter was less than 24 hours old, and while we were exhausted, we were constantly just overjoyed with having her in our arms. Those are some genuine smiles.”
Lauren from Whole Wheat or Bust
“I dug as deep as I felt comfortable today and I found a few things in my heart and mind that are beautiful and give me comfort. ” 🙂
My best friends and family are my rock. Keep me both grounded and sane but also encourage me to let my dreams and hopes fly as high as the sky.
The outdoors, especially lakes are where I feel the happiest. Wakeboarding on smooth water on a warm day has got to be one of the greatest feelings in the world.
The people of Tibet. I have never met a kinder, more giving and loving group of people in my life. They will give you the clothes of their back and their last scrap of food at any time. I must strive to be more like them.
WOW, so if that doesn’t leave you feeling good, not sure what will. THANK YOU lovely ladies for sharing your HEART & SOUL!
So lets end with this. Repeat after me……
“give me courage to unplug, determination to focus, and patience to listen.”
Cheers!
