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."

Favorite Quote heard today;

When PTSD-retired J6 policeman Harry Dunn was interviewed on a news station he said: “Healing isn’t a destination, it’s a journey.”

Enjoy the vistas!

Some racehorses are staying in a stable. One of them starts to boast about his track record. “In the last 15 races, I’ve won eight of them!”

Another horse breaks in: “Well in the last 27 races, I’ve won 19!”

“Oh that’s good, but in the last 36 races, I’ve won 28!” says another.

At this point, the horses notice a greyhound, who has been sitting there listening. “I don’t mean to boast,” says the greyhound, “but in my last 90 races, I’ve won 88 of them!”

The horses are clearly amazed. “Wow!” says one, after a hushed silence. “A talking dog!”

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. - ...Eleanor Roosevelt.

I may have already mentioned the magnet on my refrigerator, also a quote by the great Eleanor Roosevelt:
"Do one thing everyday that scares you."

I do try this once in a while and have found it to be of great help. Have no fear than fear itself, right?

Never cry for the person who hurts you. Just smile and say, "thank you for giving me a chance to find someone better than you."
