ABH – Inspirational Sayings
ABH – Inspirational Sayings – June 2015 – If there is one thing that I know – it’s that all people who love animals have their hearts nicked or broken every day. But then we focus on the task at hand – which is creating awareness to help them – and get back to doing the job that stirs our passions and helps to correct human wrongs!
I’ve added a new category and started a Facebook page – A Beating Heart – Inspiration Sayings – for those days when we need a reminder of all that is wise, profound and still beautiful in the world. I have always loved “profundities” and I hope these give you a lift on a day when you need a touch of magic!
This page was inspired by and is in remembrance of the Nigerian people who have either been kidnapped or lost their lives in the recent atrocities.
