Celebrating Barbara Streisand

 It’s the singer and actress Barbara Streisand’s birthday today. In celebration of this day, I’m sharing one song she’s famous for singing called “Don’t Rain On My Parade”. Wherever you are reading this, I hope you get to see and/or participate in parades in your life and I hope you never let people dampen your spirits. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always. You can listen to the song here.

Celebrating Shakespeare

“I love you with so much of my heart that none is left to protest.” 0Beatrice to Benedick in Act 4, Scene 1 of William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing.


The playwright William Shakespeare was born around this day in 1564 and to celebrate this day, I’m sharing the quote above because I always have felt it’s the loveliest quote and it reminds me of how important it is to love people. Wherever you are reading this, I hope you always choose to fill your heart so full of love that there’s never room for hate in it. I send everyone best wishes and much love now and always.
