Quotes
Love Me
“Love me when I least deserve it, because that’s when I really need it.” -Swedish Proverb
I’m Not Impressed
“I’m not impressed by how many material items someone has or how much money they make. There are many cruel and uncaring people who’ve made lots of money and have bought fancy things. I AM impressed by how someone touches others’ lives & the kindness they show to others. That’s something money can’t buy and something that’s rarely shown off or even appreciated these days. If more people were striving to make a positive difference in people’s lives and to be a ray of kindness everywhere they go, the world could start to sparkle a little more. Let’s try to sparkle, not with showing off our bling, but by showing the priceless sparkle of kindness in our hearts.” -Kandee Johnson
Being Strong…
“Being strong doesn’t mean you have to stay and fight all the battles and petty arguments that come your way. Being strong means you don’t have to stay and respond to rude remarks. Don’t resort by throwing insults back at them. It’s what they want. Keep your dignity and don’t lower yourself to their level. True strength is being adult enough to walk away from the nonsense with your head held high.” -Unknown
Just As Light
“Just as light and darkness cannot coexist, when we’re in fear we cannot feel the blessing.” -Yehuda Berg
If One Dream Should Fall…
“If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again.” -Flavia Weeden
You Are Not A Drop In The Ocean…
“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop.” -Rumi
People Toss Around The Words…
“People toss around the words ‘loyal’ and ‘kindhearted’ as though they’re common qualities. But they aren’t. They’re so rare.” -Tessa Dare
Amen to that!
The Fall Of Empire…
“The fall of Empire, gentlemen, is a massive thing, however, and not easily fought. It is dictated by a rising bureaucracy, a receding initiative, a freezing of caste, a damming of curiosity—a hundred other factors. It has been going on, as I have said, for centuries, and it is too majestic and massive a movement to stop.” ―Isaac Asimov
This is almost prophetic, it’s scary. 😦
We Are Not Alone
“We are not alone and our lives shouldn’t feel like the sum of our mistakes.” -Brandt Russo
And yet, I’ve never been more alone in my life.
