Do you have an inspiring or favorite quote to share?

Posted by Zebra @californiazebra, Jun 21, 2023

I'll start with three quotes from the very inspiring Helen Keller as noted in "Your Year of Healing" book by Amit Sood, MD:

"Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it."

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched -- they must be felt with the heart."

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much."

The four things that most most are 11 words:

Please forgive me,
I forgive you.
I love you.
Thank you.

-Dr. Ira Byock, from his book: The Four Things That Matter Most; A Book About Living

Our mindsets, the stories we tell ourselves, become our realities. — Amy Grant

Frame your life — your past, your present, your future — in a positive light. Formulate positive stories about others as well. Give reality a pep talk.

But, God…

I am so sick, frustrated, confused, hurt, empty, lonely, hurt, sobbing that I have no way out. I am trying but nothing I do is working!

But, God…

Well, I've always followed the advice in a Janis Joplin song: "Don't turn your back on love."

Just as only a good tree can bear good fruit and a grapevine produce grapes, so only a good heart can produce good. We can tell if someone has a bad heart by listening to their words.
