Hello all! I've been abundantly blessed by my virtual coffee chats with so many of you in this wonderful forum on Books and Literature! (The Relationship forum is fun too, but this is where inspiration comes from... "the stuff dreams are made of" )
Anyways... We all have favorite quotes, quotes that have touched a chord in our hearts and minds, quotes that have influenced our decisions, inspired us to go that extra mile, give us courage to face the day, and shown us what real living is like.
Lets share these divine inspirations with our little world here - on this little posting. I'll start with one of my all-time favorites....
Being a star-gazer myself and being the proud owner of a tempestuous personal history, this is one of my favorites - it reminds me that no matter what is swirling around me at a given time, I can get through it.
"The most tempestuous wind cannot disturb the quiet of the stars."
Literary wishes and Shakespearean dreams,

Crud, I'm in another mood.... This whole "being an emotional woman" thing really stinks at times!
"Wanting him is hard to forget, loving him is hard to regret, losing him is hard to accept, but even with all the hurt I've felt, letting go is the most painful yet."
"Sometime you just have to hold your head up high, blink away the tears and say good-bye."
"You didn't intentionally break my heart, you even said you were sorry, but I cried anyway... I know the truth that you're too scared to admit, you're with her, but when you look at me, you can't even remember her name..."
"I cried today... not because I miss you... or even wanted you... but because I realized I'm gonna be all right without you."
"So... from now on... when you think of me... just remember that I could've been the best thing you ever had."
And that, my friends, is the scope of my emotions this morning.... what a ride, eh?
But you know, even on this insane emotional roller-coaster I am reminded that I choose the way I live each moment. I choose to feel sad, wounded, upset, and angry or I choose to feel content, resolved, beautiful, and yes, happy.
So, today I have chosen to get off this emotional roller coaster and take a ride on that delightful porch swing... the swing on which I can sit and watch the sunset while reflecting on the amazing blessings of my life.
HC, is the following an original? You have your sig of "Don't sell yourself short," etc. as an original. But I wasn't sure about this one. If I ever use it, just want to credit it to the writer.
Always remind me that my tears have made my rainbow.
My failures, my heartaches, my mistakes have made my rainbow. My beautiful reminder of grace. My promise in the storm.

Thanks for this question... I think I've fixed it in the signature....
