Share an inspirational quote

Hi All,

Just wanted to share a quote with you that someone shared with me a little while ago. It's certainly helped me see brighter days at times.

You are a person

You are not only your pain

You are not only scars and wounds;

You are also better things.

You are possibility and promise,

Hope and healing and daydreams.

You are favourite books and favourite songs.

You are the people you love, and the people who love you.

You are HOPE and CHANGE

and things worth fighting for.

This is your story

And your story isn't over.

(Jamie Tworkowski)

Yep Albert Camus came up with some great ones.  And the on about lonliness by Jung, absolute gold.

Hi All, I heard this one on the radio, I have no idea who it was by, but it goes like this:

"When was the last time you did something for the first time?"

The comment was made in relation to people doing something exciting in their lives to keep them motivated and engaged in life!

A wonderfully inspiring quote from Lao Tzu that I came across:

"When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be."

Worrying is like letting the failures of your past guide you through the unlknown possibilities of the future.

Hi All,

Don't you just hate it when you hear or read a great quote, then when you come to write it down to share it with others, you forget what it is!

Or does that just happen to me? Ha. Ha.

I will just keep laughing at my mistakes and be thankful I can find many ways to entertain myself!

You are not alone Mrs Dools!

Here's one I like by Jiddu Krishnamorti

"The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence"

- Winston Churchill

Only just seen our quote, I'm new to the forum. But I loved it and it totally resonated with me. My lifelong quote is, ' Above all else , to your own self be true" and your smile is very much an essential part of who you are, don't you think

hi, another great Albert Camus one is something I found 18 years ago after my big brother was killed in a plane crash, an event that changed my life forever . Many years later I found out it was the catalyst that started my anxiety and depression, but is still a quote that has helped me through some tough times.

"In the midst of winter I found within me an invincible summer"
