The one that gets me through when things are tough is this bit from the Invitation:
It doesn?t interest me
to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up
after the night of grief and despair
weary and bruised to the bone
and do what needs to be done
to feed the children.
Oriah
We had the Invitation as a reading at our wedding. It doesn't even matter to me about whether or not we have kids yet - for me it's about working through any kind of pain.
This really gets me too.:
My favorite of the moment is in Bathsheba's sig -
"be kinder than necessary because everyone is fighting some kind of battle" has really struck a chord for me.
I read it on a church billboard thing and its the only one that has really stuck with me.. It makes complete sense:
My very favourite....
"Adversity causes some men to break - And others to break records."
A couple of other faves...
"We'd never see the rainbow, if it wasn't for the rain"
"Dream, Believe, Achieve..."
"Life's not about how many breaths we take, it's about the moments that take your breath away"
"Life's not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain."
Aaaah I love inspirational quotes!!
Frankly, if the truth be known, I think God has singled me out for a special treatment. I think God meant for me to build a thirst for a child so strong and so deep that when that baby is finally placed in my arms, it will be the longest, coolest, most refreshing drink I've ever known.
Beautiful rach xx
just a few more i really love
Nothing happens by pure chance or accident, and what appears to be merely fortunate or unfortunate circumstance is really the outworking of God's plans.
"And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow." ~ G. K. Chesterton
If you look at what you have in life, You'll always have more. If you look at what you don't have in life, You'll never have enough.
Do you mind if I use the first quote as the little line below my username? I'm thinking I need to have this tattooed somewhere on my body that I look at every day...best spot right now would be my breast I think lol.:
If not, no biggie - I promise!
S xon
Of course you can babe xx I put it on here to help hun
Stay strong beautiful :heartbeat:
"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place"
My favourite is a quote by Pearl Jam's lead singer Eddie Vedder.
"Those who dance are called insane by those who don't hear the music".
Oooh I love this thread! I'm going to pull a heap off from my FB page...
"Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand" - makes me think of being upset and getting the girls round and cheering up
"Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear"
"Imagine what you could do if you knew you couldn't fail" - I think so many of us don't attempt things because we think we won't be able to do it.
"Follow every rainbow, till you find your dream" - never give up and stop trying to actively seek out what you want in life
"When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained" - don't try and over-analys things because we can never be sure what others are thinking
"Remember to be gentle with yourself and others. We are all children of chance and none can say why some fields will blossom while others lay brown beneath the August sun. Care for those around you. Look past your differences. Their dreams are no less than yours, their choices no more easily made. And give, give in any way you can, of whatever you posses. To give is to love. To withhold is to wither. Care less for your harvest than for how it is shared and your life will have meaning and your heart will have peace.”
"Honor isn't about making the right choices. It's about dealing with the consequences" - always take responsibility for your actions
My absolute fave is...
"Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss passionately, love truly, laugh constantly and never stop smiling no matter how strange life is" - whenever i'm upset I use this
And finally (sung in Glee style)
"DON'T STOP BELIEVING"!!!!!
Wow that a lot!
Dedication ultimately proves better than ability. Ray Wheatley
Move out of your comfirt zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new. Brian Tracy
A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future and accepts you just the way you are.
The greatest thing in life is doing what people say you cannot do
You are the handicap you must face.
You are the one who must choose your place.
You are never a loser until you quit trying.
If you can't accept losing, you can't win.
The future influences the present just as much as the past does. Frederich Nietzsche
Brave isn't about not being afraid, it's about being scared to death and still not giving in
He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life. Muhammad Ali
It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.
These are all quotes I love. I use most of them for my training but some apply to everything in life really...
Oh, goosebumps material that one.:
My all time fave is "Don't take life to seriously, it isn't permanent...." reminds me to, well... not take things to seriously when I start getting all panic attackish over bills and whatever.
I have seen some pretty inspiring ones in people sigs too around here ;)
"Worry does not empty tomorrow of sorrow - it empties today of strength."
Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So, love like you have never been hurt, work like you dont need the money, and dance like there's no tomorrow :)
And, of course - If you hate something, don't you do it too
This is an old song from savage garden- affirmations and these are some lyrics that just hit the spot for me and give me shivers
I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye
I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness..
I live by "everything happens for a reason"... its sometimes the only thing that gets me through hard times.
I also like "yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift, thats why its called the pressent"
I've come accross so many lately. I love this one
You are here to enable the divine purpose of the universe to unfold.
That's how important you are!
