You All Are So, Sooooo Wonderful! I love you!

You're all so damn right!  It kills me.

Wallow in self-pity?
No. My lovely and dear commenters are simply not having it.

Thank you for that!  This dreaded word "can't" need not apply to me (or any of us!).

"Can't" I want a restraining order, stop stalking me you Can't-arazzi!



Here are some pick-me-up-quotes that I've come across in the past week or two...enjoy.

“Good enough

n e v e r   

is.” 

-- Debbi Fields

“I can change. 
I can live out my imagination 
instead of my memory. 
I can tie myself to my limitless potential 
instead of my limiting past.”

-- Stephen Covey

“C h a n g e. 

It has the power to uplift, 

to heal, to stimulate, surprise, 

open new doors, bring fresh experience 

and create excitement in life. 

Certainly it is worth the risk.” 

-- Leo Buscaglia

“We have the need to be  a c c e p t e d  and to be loved by others, 

but we cannot accept and love ourselves. 

The more self-love we have, the less we will experience self-abuse. 

Self-abuse comes from self-rejection, and 

self-rejection comes from having an image of what it means to be 

p e r f e c t 

and  

n e v e r   m e a s u r i n g   u p  

to that ideal. 

Our image of perfection is the reason we reject ourselves the way we are, 

and why we don't accept others the way they are.” 

-- Don Miguel Ruiz 

“Good enough

n e v e r   

is.” 

-- Debbi Fields

“How do we keep our inner fire alive? 

Two things, at minimum, are needed: 

An ability to appreciate the positives in our life

And a commitment to action. 

Every day, it’s important to 

ask and answer these questions: 

‘What’s good in my life?’ and

‘What needs to be done?’” 

-- Nathaniel Branden 

“ ...what I focus on in life is what I get. 

And if I concentrate on how bad I am or how wrong I am 

or how inadequate I am, 

if I concentrate on what I can’t do and 

how there’s not enough time in which to do it, 

isn’t that what I get every time? 

And when I think about how powerful I am, and 

when I think about what I have left to contribute, and 

when I think about the difference I can make on this planet, 

then that’s what I get. You see, I recognize that 

it’s not what happens to you; 

it’s what you do about it.” 

-- W. Mitchell
