A SILVER LINING
THE GREATEST HAPPINESS OF LIFE
The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved,
loved for ourselves, or rather in spite of ourselves.
- Victor Hugo
THE JOY OF LAUGHTER
I like the laughter that opens the lips and the heart,
that shows at the same time, pearls and the soul.
- Victor Hugo
BELIEVE IN YOUR DREAMS
"We are all given talents and dreams. Sometimes the two don't seem to match. But usually we compromise both before ever finding out. Later on, we find ourselves looking back longingly to that time when we should have chased our true dreams and our true talents for all they were worth. Don't let yourself be pressured into thinking that your dreams or your talents aren't prudent. They were never meant to be prudent. They were meant to bring joy and fulfilment into your life."
- Richard Edler
If a caterpillar refuses to get into its cocoon it'll never transform and will be forever relegated to crawling on the ground, even though it had the potential to fly.
- Bob Gass
You are not limited by your IQ, you are limited by your "I will" attitude.
- Miriam Jacob
"If you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you
don't. If you'd like to win but you think you can't, it's almost certain you won't. Life's battles don't always go to the stronger or faster man, but sooner or later the man who wins, is the man who believes he can."
- A Poet's Quote
BELIEVE IN YOUR DREAMS, CHASE THEM UNTIL YOU CATCH THEM, GLITTERING IN THE SUNSHINE.
- Miriam Jacob
BEGIN AGAIN
Every day is a fresh beginning,
Every morn is the world made new.
Here is a beautiful hope for you -
A hope for me and a hope for you.
Every day is a fresh beginning;
Listen to the glad refrain,
And, in spite of puzzles forecasted
and possible pain,
Take heart with the day,
and begin again.
- Susan Coolidge
RAINBOWS
You do not see a rainbow on a cloudless, rainless day. You see the
rainbow when there are clouds and rain. So the most beautiful and most valuable experiences of your life will not be in the day of the
unclouded sky and the serene sunlight, but in the days of adversity
and of sorrow and trial. Then God's greatest and most gracious truths proclaim themselves across the firmament of our life.
- Clarence McCartney
THE SUNSHINE OF HAPPINESS
Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves. - Sir James M. Barrie
Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.
- Abraham Lincoln
Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. - Nathaniel Hawthorne
The true secret of happiness lies in the taking a genuine interest in
all the details of daily life. - William Morris
