Default thought for the day

thought it might be fun for those of us into interesting quotes and such to post thoughts here whenever we like, here is mine for today


Never discuss your problems with someone incapable of contributing to the solution, because those who never succeed themselves are always first to tell you how.

If you've never been to despair.com, those who are of a sarcastic bent (*picture me raising my hand), will feel right at home...

Default Here are a few I like

What lies before us and what lies behind us
are small matters compared to what lies within us.
And when we bring what is within out into the world,
miracles happen.
HENRY DAVID THOREAU


Some people say they haven't yet found themselves.
But the self is not something one finds;
it is something one creates.
THOMAS SZASZ



DON'T EVER DOUBT YOURSELF

You have so much to offer,
so much to give, and so much
you deserve to receive in return.
Don't ever doubt that.
Know yourself and all of your fine qualities.
Rejoice in all your marvelous strengths
of mind and body.
Be glad for the virtues that are yours,
and pat yourself on the back for all
your many admirable achievements.

Keep positive.
Concentrate on that which
makes you happy,
and build yourself up.
Stay nimble of heart,
happy of thought,
healthy of mind, and well in being.
JANET A. SULLIVAN

DIFFICULT TIMES
DON'T LAST FOREVER

Sometimes, the problems you must face
are more than you wish to cope with,
and tomorrow doesn't seem to offer any solutions.

You may ask yourself, "Why me?"
but the answer is sometimes unclear.
You may even tend to feel
that life hasn't been just or fair
to burden you with such obstacles.

The roads any of us choose
to follow are never free
of bumps or curves,
but eventually the turns
lead to a smoother path ahead.

Believe in yourself and your dreams.
You will soon realize that
the future holds many promises
for you.
Remember... difficult times don't last forever.
GERI DANKS
I can keep on going and going but I won't. These are some of the ones I like.

Wink A favorite one from a (small) sign at work...

We the Unwilling,
Led by the Unknowing,
Have done So Much
With So Little
For So Long,
That we are Now Qualified
To do Anything
With Nothing!
