FAVORITE QUOTES
I thought it might be cool to have a space where we can share our favorite quotes. Words that move us... Inspire us!
I'll start with one I recently found:
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"
Actually, who are you not to be?
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same."
~Marianne Willamson
Have a beautiful day!

My favorite would probably be from Rob Thomas' "Streetcorner Symphony"
"Some people, it's a pity, they go all their lives and never know how to love or to let love go.."
Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again; and this interdependence produces the highest form of living.

Quoted by: Les brown

It is a paradoxical but profoundly true and important principle of life that the most likely way to reach a goal is to be aiming not at that goal itself but at some more ambitious goal beyond it.

"You do not know how much they mean to me, my friends,
And how, how rare and strange it is, to find
In a life composed so much, so much of odds and ends...
To find a friend who has these qualities,
Who has, and gives
Those qualities upon which friendship lives."
~T.S. Eliot

"The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately
without growing apart."

Howard Thurman:
“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson:
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
HUGS and LOVE everyone!

These quotes came from 2 different movies, but I love them!!

To accept the things I cannot change;
The courage to change the things I can;
And the wisdom to know the difference.

No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another. Good example is followed. A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves.
Amelia Earhart
Abraham Joshua Heschel:
A religious man is a person who holds God and man in one thought at one time, at all times, who suffers harm done to others, whose greatest passion is compassion, whose greatest strength is love and defiance of despair.
Franklin Thomas:
One day our descendants will think it incredible that we paid so much attention to things like the amount of melanin in our skin or the shape of our eyes or our gender instead of the unique identities of each of us as complex human beings.
in Gloria Steinem, Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions, 1983
Robert Schuller:
As we grow as unique persons, we learn to respect the uniqueness of others.
Live your life crazy and love every second of it.
Drama, lies, and tears - welcome to the teenage years.
Whoever said that the sky is the limit when there are footsteps on the moon.
Every gril wants a guy she can run to in her sweats, hair a mess, make up running down her face and he says "Baby, you're still beautiful."
A guy gave a girl a dozen roses - eleven real, one fake and said "I won't stop loving you until the last one dies."

Miracles are God's advancing truths, seen through surprised eyes.
What you resist persists.
Coincedence is God's work, when he chooses to remain anonymous.
Never fear shadows...it means there is a light shining nearby.
Forgiveness is the glue that mends broken relationships.
Humility is the perpetual quietness of the heart.
