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."

If wisdom's ways you wisely seek,
Five things observe with care.
To whom you speak,
Of whom you speak,
And when, and why, and where.

Through Christ all things are possible.

Also I know the plans I have for you and they are plans for good not evil.

Failure is NOT fatal.

Success is NOT final.

Never, never, never give up.

You can not solve a problem with the same mind that created it and you cannot attract a different experience without changing your energy first. 💯 ♡

@annewoodmayo I agree with you. This is my favorite motivational poster of all time. I think most of us on this message board feel like that frog at times, but we're still going like the little engine that could! 🙂

And I wouldn't want to give up because I would have made sure with DAILY Questioning of the merit of my goal...especially with those who think different than me. This is the principle in science. And that's why it has been good for us. I practice this approach much more diligently for larger goals (finding friends, establishing where to live, for example) and with much less investment of time/effort/money where it does not impact my life much.
