Quotes - Let's keep having faith in life!

Mine is from Helen Keller:
“What we have once enjoyed deeply we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.”

 

These speak to me right now.

Life is about change. Sometimes it's painful. Sometimes it's beautiful. But most of the time, it's both.
- Lana Lang

Stop waiting for Friday, for summer, for someone to fall in love with you, for life. Happiness is achieved when you stop waiting for it and make the most of the moment you are in now. (I don't know who said it)

 

“Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don’t. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.” - by Harvey MacKay

"Enjoy life now. This is not a rehearsal."

 

It's a beautiful idea to honor her memory with this month's M3. She's missed already...

Here's some of my favorite quotes:
- It can't rain all the time.
- Breathe. It's a bad day, not a bad life.
- Every sunset brings the promise of a new dawn.
- Everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end.
(I'm pretty sure I've scrapped all of them!)

 

Actually all very pertinent...my son became disabled at three due to an unknown medical condition so this quote is perfect for my family and I

"We are fragile. Life is short. Eternity is long. Every minute counts."
John Piper

 

we have, so many of us, have gone through some heart breaking loss in the past year...

I found a quote that is meant for traveling, but I think it can be adapted into the people we loose and the way to make the pain less intense and light up their pace to their own spirit world...

the quote says
Travel leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller....

I found myself unable to write or speak every time I lost a loved one, but then I found healing and sometimes almost joy in telling about our amazing experiences, be that difficult times or the amazing ones.
I am finding my ground slowly to tell my Dad's story, and in our pages here I think we are pouring the connection we had with Dawn, even if you just only bought a few kits.... you were impacted by her creativity....and telling her story together with her art will keep her full of light
super abraco e beijo pra ti ,com todo meu coracao.
LOVE your M3 add ons, I ll grab later, was unwell and we had to finish the challenge for tomorrow and chat....but pages will be here soon!!!!!

 

Paula, im so glad youre honoring Dawn thru this.

My favorite is from a song

"Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You're near
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the achings of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise"

-Laura Story

Not sure who said this or where it came from but one of my favorites: you can't have rainbows without the rain.

 

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
~Helen Keller

 

I like this one.. and there are many more!

 

Life is short; eat dessert first. -- Jacques Torres

 

beautiful idea, Paula!

i like this one and it makes me think of Dawn too :
“The reason birds can fly and we can’t is simply because they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings.” ― J.M. Barrie

 

The world breaks everyone, and afterward many are strong in the broken places.
-Hemingway

 

Because of my love of the ocean (not swimming in it... watching and listening to the waves) I really like this one I found:

 

- Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.

- In the midst of winter, I found that was within me an invincible summer.

- All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.

- Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while you could miss it.

- The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart.

And this one from a song by my fave (Italian) band:
Sometimes it may seem like everything is over; a moment later you look at your hands, lift them up to the sky and cover the clouds; grabbing them back down, you hide them behind your back, until the next sun, until its dark, to see the stars better and reassure them that tomorrow will be a new beginning.

I saw this on instagram and I screenshot it, because it hit me right in the heart...we must enjoy life!

“Oh my God, what if you wake up some day, and you're 65, or 75, and you never got your memoir or novel written, or you didn't go swimming in those warm pools and oceans all those years because your thighs were jiggly and you had a nice big comfortable tummy; or you were just so strung out on perfectionism and people-pleasing that you forgot to have a big juicy creative life, of imagination and radical silliness and staring off into space like when you were a kid? It's going to break your heart. Don't let this happen.”
― Anne Lamott

 

I have always loved this quote by Tagore:

"Faith is the bird that feels the light when the dawn is still dark."
