I had to go get my journal. The alternative would have been to haul the computer to the refrigerator or vice versa, because my fridge is my inspiration center. (You can also tell that by looking at my shape. Round.
)
So here are a few of mine -- many, many of them are from SR:
"Never compare your insides to somebody else's outsides"
"When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." (Viktor Frankl)
"Confusion is mostly the result of magical thinking. Reality is not very confusing at all." (LaTeeDa)
"Nobody ever died from being uncomfortable"
"Live is too short to stress yourself with people who don't even deserve to be an issue in your life."
"It won't always feel this way. Just go about your business." (I think that's Barb Dwyer, but I'm not sure?)
"Be like a fighter in a ring: Fight fair, but protect yourself at all times." (This was an SR member's father who used to say to her, I don't remember who)
"Change your expectations to match your reality" (Cyranoak)
"There is no such thing as a fear-free path.
In fact, often the paths leading to the greatest joy and growth
feel the most fearful.
Happily, the best things in life are waiting for you
at the exit ramp of your comfort zone." (Karen Salmansohn)
"Why are you surprised when an alcoholic acts like an alcoholic?" (Anvil? Do you claim this one?)
"What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say" (Emerson)
"Right now -- the house is safe
your children are safe
you are safe" (Barb Dwyer)
"I love the ones who are in my life and make it amazing,
and I thank the ones who left my life and made it even more fantastic" (I think that's Karen Salmansohn, too)
