Quotes To Live By

Quote #73: Camille Nitschky

"Hi, I'm Camille Nitschky, currently I'm the Director of Care and Compassion at Valerie's House in Ft. Myers Florida but I'll be returning in May to Angelheart Studio to facilitate Massage/Reiki and lots of creative workshops for positive well being. I'm a member of the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition. A quote that inspires me is "Hold your face up to the light, even for the moment you cannot see", written my Bill Wilson, cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous. The reason I find this quote so inspiring is it gives me a sense of hope. I may not be able to envision the whole picture of what's going on in my life and sometimes the darkness seems so hard to navigate but if I hold my face up to the light, literally sometimes, up to the sun if I'm outside, and feel the warm upon my face, I get a sense of peace and connection to the God of my understanding and I know the answers will come when I'm ready for them. This quote supports my wellbeing because it reminds me to PAUSE, take a breath and hold my face up to the light. Knowing deep within I can get through anything and I'm never alone. So, the next time you can't seem to see the path in front of you or the answer to the decision you're trying to make, pause, hold your face up to the light and know that the answer will come, even "for the moment you cannot see." This has been brought to you by the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition's Quotes to Live By Series. Have a Hope filled day today!"
