After a pretty rough week I looked up for probably the first time and this is what I saw……
a beautiful sunset showing me that life carries on……
Life throws us a few curve balls every now and then, and the only way out is one day at a time.
Here are a few quotes I have found, some of which inspire and a few which make me giggle – and that’s also a good thing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. ~Agatha Christie
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It’s not easy taking my problems one at a time when they refuse to get in line. ~Ashleigh Brilliant
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you got a problem. Everything else is inconvenience. ~Robert Fulghum
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A bend in the road is not the end of the road… unless you fail to make the turn. ~Author Unknown
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I know God will not give me anything I can’t handle. I just wish that He didn’t trust me so much. ~Mother Teresa
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air, is not worth all the suffering and effort which life implies. ~Erich Fromm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn’t lead anywhere. ~Frank A. Clark
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It just wouldn’t be a picnic without the ants. ~Author Unknown

Lovely…and yes, the picnic of life, definitely comes with ants, but most times they’re small enough to avoid 😉

Lovely image, glad you were able to take the time to see it. Here’s a little one to add to your list:
May the sun bring you new energy by day, may the moon softly restore you by night, may the rain wash away your worries, may the breeze blow new strength into your being.

Life is so nice, it’s only what you want to do with it that cause problems. I found a saying some times ago that apply well to my life.
“Pursue your dreams until hell freezes over. Then keep going on the ice.”
