“To share with others helps in growing self-worth!
To give of yourself furthers your growth exponentially.
But when you learn to receive,
as gracefully
as you share and give,
you become endowed with the greatest ability of all
~ that of encouraging others to grow as well!”
~ Penny L Howe, 2013

The Why About This 
Receiving is a struggle for me as well, one that I must continually work on overcoming.
right there with you on that one!
I like the photo for your quote!
Imagine us sitting pretty in a garden next to each other. Yep – I can see that!
xx 🙂 🙂 xx
Me too, would it be wonderful!!!! 🙂 xo
Penny, I will take this post to heart, because I am not one to gracefully receive. I will have to think on the “why” of this.
I’m glad Sheila, it is also one I have struggled with for a considerable period of time (as has been pointed out) which is why I do try to focus on the benefit it is to allow others to “do” for me! 🙂
Like it Penny, wishing you a great week ahead. I am off to visit my mum for some days! Sending you love !
Much love and much much fun to you too, Ute!
How true Penny. Learning to receive graciously is a life long pursuit.
… And often a most difficult one for some (pointing finger at myself here, lol)! 🙂
This is so true. Penny!
🙂
Have a great week. Love and hugs to you. Paula xxx
You have a good one too Paula, and don’t every stop growing (and having fun in the process! LOL) much love to you and always the hugs too! 🙂 xo
beautiful, amiga!
Thank you, my friend. It stayed cloudy, sigh, so I didn’t get to see the Perseids meteor shower in my night sky, but I did watch some footage online, not hardly the same though! xx
Beautiful and inspirational, Penny! Have a wonderful week ahead! xoxo
Hi Lauren! Thank you. And you also an excellent week ahead for you also, with lots of creativity going on! 🙂 xo
