Hi Staffy  :thumbsup: :)

 

You were born with potential.

You were born with goodness and trust.

You were born with ideals and dreams.

You were born with greatness.

You were born with wings.

You are not meant for crawling, so don't.

You have wings.

Learn to use them and fly.

 

~ Rumi Quote ~

Be Like a Tree

 

Soak up the sun

Affirm life's magic

Be graceful in the wind

Stand tall after a storm

Feel refreshed after it rains

Grow strong without notice

Be prepared for each season

Provide shelter to strangers

Hang tough through a cold spell

Emerge renewed at the first signs of spring

Stay deeply rooted while reaching for the sky

Be still long enough to hear your own leaves rustling.

Hi Gaer

 

I'm pleased that you found the quote uplifting.  I search for them on the internet and chose the one's that have a lot of meaning

and also reflect what I feel and think after being free from my addiction to Benzo's.

Alfred, I see that you have gotten TWO very different monkeys off your back - benzos and booze.

 

I think it is HUGE that you have done this!

 

I search each day for people who have something positive to add. I realize that part of getting better is to share fears and pain, but it is very nice to see people share hope!

"Perhaps the very best question that you can memorize and repeat, over and over, is,

"what is the most valuable use of my time right now?"

"Become a possibilitarian.

No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are

Raise your sights  and see the possibilities

Always see them, for they're always there."

 

~ Norman Vincent Peale

“Today expect something good to happen to you

No matter what occurred yesterday.

Realize the past no longer holds you captive.

It can only continue to hurt you if you hold on to it.

Let the past go.

A simply abundant world awaits.

 

~ Sarah Breathnach ~

“Hope is the thing with feathers

That perches in the soul

And sings the tune without the words

And never stops at all.”

“You're going to meet many people with domineering personalities: the loud, the obnoxious,

 

those that noisily stake their claims in your territory and everywhere else they set foot on.

 

This is the blueprint of a predator. Predators prey on gentleness, peace, calmness, sweetness

 

and any positivity that they sniff out as weakness. Anything that is happy and at peace they mistake for weakness.

 

It's not your job to change these people, but it's your job to show them that your peace and gentleness do not equate to weakness.

 

I have always appeared to be fragile and delicate but the thing is, I am not fragile and I am not delicate.

 

I am very gentle but I can show you that the gentle also possess a poison. I compare myself to silk.

 

People mistake silk to be weak but a silk handkerchief can protect the wearer from a gunshot.

 

There are many people who will want to befriend you if you fit the description of what they think is weak;

 

predators want to have friends that they can dominate over because that makes them feel strong and important.

 

The truth is that predators have no strength and no courage. It is you who are strong, and it is you who has courage.

 

I have lost many a friend over the fact that when they attempt to rip me, they can't. They accuse me of being deceiving;

 

I am not deceiving, I am just made of silk. It is they who are stupid and wrongly take gentleness and fairness for weakness.

 

There are many more predators in this world, so I want you to be made of silk.

 

You are silk.”

Choose your goal and keep your eye on it. Never give up.

Perhaps you will need to change your plan

and approach you goal from a different direction, but don't quit.

Keep thinking. Keep re-planning. Keep going.

 

~ Jonathan Lockwood Huie ~

 

 

Hi Staffy

I found the quote by C. Joybell C. so true and to the point, I can relate to it in a big way.

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement.

Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.

A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another.

If these minds love one another, the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden.

But if these minds get out of harmony with one another it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden.

 

~ Buddha Quote ~
