Quotes that I like

[CMF]

I couldn't think of a more creative name for this thread so I kept it simple. I love coming across quotes that make me feel good or make me think about a situation in a different light. I have a "little book of confidence" that I used to carry in my handbag for when i needed it and I have a few other little books with quotes that I reflect on now and then

I thought it would be good to share some and encourage others to do the same.

For starters I have:

If you want to know someone's mind, listen to their words. If you want to know their heart, watch their actions.

People are not addicted to alcohol or drugs, they are addicted to escaping reality.

"Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present."

It's from marcus aurelius. He was the roman empire's chief bro in the fight against the germanic tribes in northern europe. Basically think of the start to the movie Gladiator.. The old man that gets murdered lol

i like it because so much of what he was dealing with at that time on a personal level would've been very stressful... i mean he's in a war haha. Most of the stuff he writes comes out of adversity. I think there's hope for all of us when i think about it.... yes times can be sooo rough and we must weather the storms.. but hang in there and remember to disassociate yourself from as much of the adversity as you possibly can

“An empty lantern provides no light. Self-care is the fuel that allows your light to shine brightly.” -Unknown

“With every act of self-care your authentic self gets stronger, and the critical, fearful mind gets weaker. Every act of self-care is a powerful declaration: I am on my side, I am on my side, each day I am more and more on my own side.” -Susan Weiss Berry
