Forgiveness

Forgiveness is the synchronization of the heart and mind to accept to release resentments and heartaches that once had nested in you. Unleashing it by letting it go with the breeze of the wind and a big smiling heart. Now you have a winner :) Forgiving is healthy and it feels deliberating. So set it free.



I came across various websites and found quotes on forgiveness which are very heart warming and open minding. So I thought to share some of my faves with you guys. I hope you like it :) 

"Forgiveness is a funny thing. It warms the heart and cools the sting." - William Arthur Ward

"To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." - Louis B. Smedes

"Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it." - Mark Twain

 "Forgiveness is the sweetest revenge." - Isaac Friedmann

"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." - Mahatma Gandhi

“As I walked out the door toward the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still be in prison.” -Nelson Mandela

“Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.” -Nelson Mandela

“Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you are.” -Cherie Carter-Scott

Forgiving... not necessary-ly for anyone, but for yourself :)
Be a free soul with a jumbo-dumbo smiling heart!

Lots of love!
xoxo, Yasmin

Skin journey: How I cured my skin. I went French!

Dear readers, Ever since I moved to the UK I realize that my makeup consumption has increased quite drastically. Trust me I did wear makeup, but just as simple as setting powder and some BB cream if I am in the mood. Heavy make-up special occasions only. But this past year I have been using makeup pretty much everyday. BB cream, sometimes foundation, concealer, not to forget I also use a primer underneath, you name it. My skin type is basically sensitive and acne-prone. So if any product does not work on my skin, just wait a few days and zits will start to come. I knew that. I was just stubborn. You see like many of you, I see makeup as fun. Who doesn't like looking 'better' right? But from the accumulation of makeup I have worn over the past few months, I have successfully grown and harvested myself an amount of zits and oh the bonus, acne scars! It sounds disgusting, I know. Apologies. For all of you having had acne, yes, yes. It is frustrating! It is painful and c

Living with Braces and Retainers (Wire/Hawley vs Clear/Essix)

How much of you has gotten braces and retainers? Yep some of us have been through it all. May it be for health reasons or for the sake to get that perfect smile. Whether you're still wearing it, going through the retainer phase, let's agree that those years are just about discipline! The discipline of actually cleaning your teeth in a way you kind of never did before (not saying that you never clean your teeth before, omg that would just sound bad, why am I even writing this? lol never mind, ignore the voice in my head babbling. So, I meant cleaning in a good way, seriously!), you get used of more that just one tool to clean your teeth, that mental preparation of facing the facts that some of your teeth must be taken out, monthly visits to the dentist (my dentist is a living witness of me growing up), wearing retainers everyday, cleaning them, put it in the case and try not to lose it honestly. So well, I am going to share you bits of my story. I had had braces for 6 years
