Words of comfort, encouragement and wisdom

[Birdy77]

To all the beautiful people 🌞

Words placed in a particular order can have a profound effect on us.

Words can bring us a moment of comfort, give us a different perspective, or change the course of our thinking and outlook entirely.

I would like this to be a space where we share quotes that have meaning to us or that have the potential to bring some comfort or encouragement to somebody, even if just for the moment in which they are reading it.

I will start.

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow." - Mary Anne Radmacher

Go gently with yourselves lovely people.

I love reading all these...they somehow make me feel peaceful. Maybe it's because my mind can focus on something else other than what's flooding it, I don't know.

Hi Music_Freak

I think this is a powerful thread, too. I come here when I need strength and I am never disappointed.

From Alice in Wonderland:

When you can't look on the bright side, I will sit with you in the dark.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this beautiful thread...

I am new, literally just joined, I have nothing to add at present but I wanted to thank you all sincerely for the words and encouragement I have found here. I found it at a time of great need and I finally feel well enough to sleep tonight.

You are all doing a beautiful thing ❤️

Thank you.

Peace and Love x

kintsukuroi (or kintsugi😞

is an ancient Japanese art form in which a broken piece of ceramic or pottery is repaired and put back together with gold lacquer to create a piece that is stronger, more beautiful, than it was before.

The breaking is not something to hide.

Kintsukuroi embraces every flaw and imperfection. The breaking and mending are honest parts of the history of the object, which should not be hidden, but are luminous scars that are considered a beautiful and solemn decoration.

Our wounds and our healing are like kintsukuroi, an integral part of our beauty and strength.

Think on this when you feel broken.

You are this beauty.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
