'Travel expands our capacity for wonder, joy and appreciation of the amazing diversity on our lovely planet'. Aside from making you happier in the short-term, traveling can make you a much more contented, happy and relaxed person in the long run, too.
Did you know Australia has the greatest number of beaches in the world?! With 10,685 beaches to choose from you could visit a new beach every day for the next 29 years! Now that's a whole new level of #travelgoals ✈️😏 #FactThursday 📸: Incredible Aerial Photography by Niaz Uddin
One of my dearest friends posted this quote "She didn't always follow the recipe..." along this beautiful beach in Australia. This made me miss my late sister-in-law who died from breast cancer while carrying her 6 months baby boy. She didn't take any treatment so her son will have a chance to live, but grievously their heartbeat stopped altogether.

This letter is from her daughter who never left her side, full of HOPE, love and bravery until the last breath of her mom. It hangs on the wall in her room, and some days the light catches it just so and she knows her mother is saying hello.
What she said about it, when the light hit it, today struck a deep chord in me. "Such a simple string of metaphor to remember there is never one way, there is only your way."
That's the kind of thing that makes my soul cry out in a way it only does when it comes face to face with deeply universal truths. The kind that encourage human tenderness. Yes. There is only your way. You will learn the hard way. You will make mistakes. You will have great love. You will experience tragic loss. People will give you advice and it will, sometimes, be taken but it will not save you from the good or the bad. You will live in your own way and you don't need to apologize for ANY of it. There is only your way. There is only your heart beating in your chest. Serve it first. Do so with kindness and consideration for the world around you, obviously. Own your own way. Grip it in your first and hold it tight. Be true.
Thank you Mommy Keith!

This kind of post is exactly what STEEMIT is all about - Bringing not only News Articles which are not written most of the time by users - but real life writing and letting us into your life. Not just into your life - but into your innermost being - full of emotions, memories, prayers and love.
I appreciate this post and sharing it with us. It truly is a heroic story of a woman that chose to fight - chose to not give up - Unfortunately it did not have a happy ending but the the happiness is in the message the story tells - of hope, of promise of a life lost that undoubtedly is looking down on her family right now .
A good deed never goes unnoticed - Sometimes to really get noticed you need some help from a random good-hearted person

You are very welcome @whitesummer - Very Welcome and again my condolences for your loss. Losing someone is never easy - "Let's express the oneness within so as we lift ourselves we lift others" - I love those words from you! And just hearing them makes me moreso justify promoting, boosting your post for you etc so that it can be read, emotions felt, and also allow the readers to have more gratitude for the even the smallest things we all seem to take for granted in life. My hope was that more people would also resteem/promote this post which you honorably allowed us into your life -
Right now it's only been 21 hours but I will certainly continue to promote it so it can make the world a better place and so others also never lose thoughts and prayers of the loved ones they lost - I seek no personal gains from you or anyone as I know karma will come back around to me down the road - please use a small % of the post earnings to help someone else's post that may be similar to yours or that has the same type of message - @whitesummer God Bless You -
Whales - can anyone help this post out bettter than I? @jerrybanfield @craig-grant @trevonjb -
