“You plant seeds every single day in the world and in others, with every thought you think and word you speak and action you take. You have influence. You’re making a dent in the universe and you matter, in a very real way.”

“ If we're going to bring out the best in people, we, too, need to sow seeds of encouragement.“

“ All of us have opportunities every day to encourage others and help them grow and flourish.“

Planting seeds by giving encouragement to one another is like giving fertilizer to someone else's soul and spirit. It does good and it creates inner growth and motivation in the person who receives the encouragement.

I know this from my own experience, in meeting others in real life but also here on Flickr and inside our Second life world. from both sides, by giving and also receiving.

Seeing others and giving encouragement can have a huge impact and make a big difference. I think it's what we are doing here for each other on Flickr. Lifting each other up and acknowledging each others potential and talent by motivating each other.

Of course, we all have different preferences of what we like and don't like, that will always be the case, but being able to lift others up and make them flourish and believe in themselves is a joy for both the recipient and the giver. At least that's how I feel.

It gives me just as much joy to give as it does to receive encouragement, if not even more joy to be able to give. Seeing someone flourish, thrive and blossom is a great joy. That is also why I decided to have my own groups here on Flickr, to be able to motivate and inspire others to continue to be creative and share their pictures, or continue to make their creations, whether it is building a sim with a beautiful landscape, for all of us to enjoy, be it creating clothes, eyes, poses, shapes, decorations, furniture, just to name a few.

I believe that by giving uplifting feedback in the form of faves, sharing encouraging words, award others, share thoughts, or emoticons. It doesn't matter, a word an expression can often mean so much more than we realize. In other words, it doesn't take much to make someone else's heart and soul smile and feel joy, or make them feel mastery and feel good enough, or make them feel they are appreciated and that they make a difference. A little attention, love, care, recognition can make a huge impact on another person, I believe that in this way, small seeds can bloom so beautifully in the meadow, together with all the other flowers.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you, my almost 4000 followers who have chosen to be part of my Journey here on Flickr, but also to those who have just visited my Flickr. You all make a difference. I am so grateful for each on of you. Thank you for all the love, joy and uplifting encouragement I have received from you over the years here, without you I probably wouldn't have continued to share my pictures here. I just want to let all of you who have been part of my journey here know, that you have given me endless joys, lots of laughter, moved me to tears, as well as giving me a chance to blossom and grow. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to each on of you, I appreciate you all immensely, more than I am able to express with words. I want to give all of you something back as thank you from my heart, and I have made this humble picture available on MP as a Gift for anyone who wants a copy. Feel free to pick up a copy.

I am laughing here, please excuse me for writing almost a book, for those of you who know me well, you know this is the case with me sometimes, I write small novels. Thanks for bearing of with me. LOL. I am just a very expressive introvert.

💖 Huge hugs and much love coming your way. Have a wonderful week ahead and keep up the great work you all are doing.

Best regards and wishes

Lori

... see into my soul ... by Rღse

🎶🎶🎶

Imagine the world, the world, the world without a song

Without a bass, a bass, a bass without a drum

Can you imagine the night, the night, the night without the moon

And when the daylight comes, it comes, but it comes without you

See you are the song, the bass, the drum, the moon

You are the song to remember me, remember you, discover you

And the world is and we are so in move

So this is the place that always seems to be better than where you have been

So you run towards the new day rising in the distance

And you walk away from the days that found and fought you

You always seem to hear God when it comes

Even when it comes from the millions of voices that call to you

You make me want to listen for him a little bit harder too

You are a rose that blooms for a second chance on the all of the seasons

A wave that breaks on a shore left for decades deserted

You make me feel like you waited for us to exist

We are a translation of a perfection that just is

So take this hand from me,

Show me to your world

Bring this dance alive

Your love can paralyze my feels of falling

Carry my heart slow, see...

See, I swear where you go, I'll follow

See into my soul

And I will take you home to love you

Coz this is a poem for love

Well, I can take one more day

Got to find my way with this one

To see the things I'm not great

All it leaves is a world falling apart

Falling into the deepest part of my heart

I can take my time

The life won't, won't just pass me by

I'ma stop tracing outlines

See this is the beauty of flowers growing underneath the sunshine

Knowing, water takes water to wine

Wine takes the grapes, grapes make the wine

And the wine breaks, breaks, breaks my veins

I see my, my name inscribing concrete walls

A day beyonds and centuries beyond

I can take myself away but not be gone

If I see my mind, hope on this time

Read the book each page and line by line by line

I can take my time or day to time

I speak my mind, I speak it all high

I speak this rhyme this time and never again, never again

Imagine the world, the world, the world without a song

Imagine the bass, the bass, the bass without the drum

Can you imagine the night, the night, the night without the moon

And when the daylight comes, it comes, but it comes without you

See you are the song, the bass, the drum, the moon

You are the song to remember me, remember you, discover you

And the world is and we are so in move

Take this hand from me

Show me to your world

Bring this dance alive

Your love can paralyze my feels of falling

Carry my heart slow

I swear where you go, I'll follow

See into my soul

And I'll take you home to love you, love you, love you...

I'll follow you yeah, I'll follow you yeah, yea

I'll follow you, I'll follow you, I'll follow you, I'll follow...

The Love Shack by princess hienrichs (SLinworld)

If you see a faded sign at the side of the road that says

"15 miles to the Love Shack"

Love Shack, yeah, yeah

I'm headin' down the Atlanta highway

Lookin' for the love getaway

Headed for the love getaway

I got me a car, it's as big as a whale

And we're headin' on down to the Love Shack

I got me a Chrysler, it seats about 20

So hurry up and bring your jukebox money

The love shack is a little old place

Where we can get together

Love Shack, baby (a-Love Shack, baby)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at)

Sign says (woo) "Stay away, fools"

'Cause love rules at the Love Shack

Well, it's set way back in the middle of a field

Just a funky old shack and I gotta get back

Glitter on the mattress

Glitter on the highway

Glitter on the front porch

Glitter on the highway

The Love Shack is a little old place

Where we can get together

Love Shack, baby (Love Shack, baby)

Love Shack, that's where it's at

Huggin' and a-kissin'

Dancin' and a-lovin'

Wearin' next to nothin'

'Cause it's hot as an oven

The whole shack shimmies

Yeah, the whole shack shimmies

The whole shack shimmies when everybody's

Movin' around and around and around and around

Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin', baby

Folks linin' up outside just to get down

Everybody's movin', everybody's groovin', baby

Funky little shack

Hop in my Chrysler

It's as big as a whale and it's about to set sail

I got me a car

Like, it seats about 20

So come on and bring your jukebox money

The Love Shack is a little old place where we can get together

Love Shack, baby (a-Love Shack, baby)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at, yeah)

Love Shack, baby, Love Shack (Love, baby, that's where it's at)
