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."

When I lose the TV controller, it's always hidden in some remote destination.

Most people are shocked when they find out how bad I am as an electrician.

My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned: couldn't concentrate

Captain,
It didn't work for me! I only get 2022 !!!
I added it up on a calculator- twice! And, yes, I remember how old I am. I thought about that, too. haha

I'm a thousand year freak of nature

I had the same issue because my birthday is in November. But when I used my soon-to-be age the answer was 2023. See if that works for you.

What you think so shall you be !
(Bible)

If you think you can…you will.
If you think you can’t…you won’t.

So tell yourself everyday before going to sleep ….I am healed.
I am whole, I am strong and invincible.
Then close your eyes and feel a warm healing ripple of water travel from head to your chest arms abdomen hips and down to your knees and toes.
This wave of warm rejuvenating water will restore every cell muscle and organ in your body.
Think it daily. Say it nightly,
What you think….so shall you be
