    Inspirational poetry cards that are available online these days have many inspiring quotes. I have come across many quotes like "Every cloud has a silver lining", "God helps those who help themselves", "Where there is a will, there's a way" and many more such inspiring words.

    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,

    Orion, that is one of my faves up there. I love it!
    Clough, your quote is so true, ever see a kid pick out something at a cany store filled with only candy? Or a toy at a big toy store? Oh the pain... ;)

    This reminded me of something that I heard an older lady say to a young married girl "fake it till you make it"

    I just stumbled across this, tonight. Don't know who the author was. However, it does seem to be pretty much just common sense.

    Comments on this post jrebel7 agrees: Good one Clough! Scary though but good one! LOL

    Thanks, jrebel7! I actually found that when I was looking for business card designs, templates and clip-art on the Internet. It's interesting what will pop up when doing searches!

    This thread, although it might be really hard to catalogue or index in some way, is really worthwhile!

    Awww... I missed you too, M! ;)

    My quote for the past few weeks has been "bubbles, bubbles, bubbles, MY BUBBLES"...

    Yeah... it was that bad. :)

    Nice to be back - and nice to be missed!

    Chicky... glad to see you again!
    Are you going to be all right? Is it a go? Or, are you staying put!

    I'm going! Well, everything is set for me to go. I've done the verbal commitment thing and they're sending me the contract.

    Yup. I'm headed to FL! :D

    I love your signature, HistorianChick! I can certainly use positive thoughts like those right now! It nice when someone like you puts things like those in your signature, because then we are seeing them on a regular basis!

    So much of life is simply about the choices that we make...

    Glad you like them, Clough. They were my musings one morning amidst rain showers and thunderstorms. I was feeling contemplative... and that's what came out! :)

    Found on my coffee cup this morning:

    It's going to be a long day.

    ... thanks coffee.
