Do you have an inspiring or favorite quote to share?
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."

I painted this one and put it out in my garden adjacent to the Carpe Diem sign that created such a stir with my next door neighbor. Every morning I have been opening my door and saying aloud, "Carpe Diem." She slams her door shut. LOL

4 ReactionsFrances,
What do you imagine your neighbor thinks "carpe diem" means?
Her reaction is really, really funny/odd.
