Everyone seems to have sayings that inspire them, or words that offer encouragement in one way or another. I have found through friends (real and online) that there is a wealth of words strung together in a variety of ways that cause me to ponder life, love and loss. I thought I would share some of them here.
Love is like the wind. I can feel it, but I can't see it.
Any emotion if it is sincere is involuntary.
Keep your loved ones in your heart and not on your mind.
The love you take is equal to the love you make
(OK, those are lyrics from a Beatles song, but they are words said to me by an ex-lover from many, many years ago when we broke up that stuck with me and I have tried to live by since.)
Anything worth having is worth fighting for.
And then there was this little gem from a fortune cookie:
Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.
This last one really struck me as being tremendously profound.
i like the quotes you've chosen, especially the "anything worth having is worth fighting for." i think we all look for words of inspiration or encouragement to give us a sense of someone having gone before us and made it through. thank you for sharing these.
