Daily Question, May 9

What one quote most often gives me the perspective I am seeking?

  • Nina

    Your value doesn’t decrease based on someone’s inability to see your worth.

  • Megalodon

    “God is LOVE.”
    End of sentence. End of paragraph. End of chapter. End of book. End.

    It started out from “Conversations with God”. I just added to it.

  • Ger Cohee

    This is a wonderful day, I have never seen this one before.
    Maya Angelou

  • Amy

    “Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.” – Desmond Tutu
    I recently came across this quote and it really resonated with me. I reflect on it daily and have shared it with several people. Our world is chaotic and our lives get complicated but through it all, we can always choose a little bit of good right where we are. It brings a peaceful feeling and spreads kindness and compassion throughout your days.

    One of the closing statements of a Catholic Mass inspires me to live my spirituality “go in Peace and Glorify the Lord with your life.”

  • Hot Sauce

    “The cracks are where the light comes in.”

  • Bob V

    There’s a beautiful lesson from the Course in Miracles that I have used a lot – I am as God created me. This gives me a lot of permission to have thoughts and actions that are not perfect (far from it, sometimes), and then to forgive those thoughts and actions as need be. This then allows me to ‘choose again’ when circumstances arise that could lead in another direction.

  • Elizabeth M Jones

    “The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has never been able to overcome the light. The New Testament of the Bible starts with this verse. This is HOPE.

  • Jay

    Lately I have been trying to remember this quote:

    The kingdom of heaven is within you, seek ye first the kingdom.

    This quote reminds me to come back to my senses and rest in my awareness of what’s happening in this miraculous moment. It seems I am always thinking about the future or worrying about the past. When I remember the kingdom is right here and now, I drop in, and I am right where I need to be. This gives me the perspective I am seeking.

  • Debra

    “Who could refrain
    That had a heart to love, and in that heart
    Courage to make love known?’”

    ~~William Shakespeare, Macbeth

  • Doreen Nixon

    I can and I will…watch me!

  • Ose

    One quote comes to mind, citing the serenity prayer:

    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    Courage to change the things I can,
    And wisdom to know the difference.

    Amen.

  • Javier Visionquest

    Experience is what you get when you don’t get what you want.
    ― Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture

  • Barbara

    “Everything is given to me, even I myself in my freedom.” Karl Jaspers

  • GCharlotte

    Fear the Lord you God Almighty knower of all things.

  • Kevin Carroll

    “One day you’ll wake up and there won’t be any more time to do the things you’ve always wanted. Do it now.” ~ Paulo Coelho

  • Linda

    People may forget what you said, they may forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel.

  • Karmit

    My favorite quote – – In this present moment, there is nowhere I need to go. There is nothing I need to do. There is no one I need to become. This present moment is as it is and it is Perfect!

    • Sheila

      I love this, Karmit and how true it is! Thank-you for sharing it!

  • tashonasmith

    “If Britney Spears survived 2007, you can make it through today”, which is a reminder that even when I think things are tough, many others are facing much worse circumstances, and that my problems are small and quite surmountable in comparison. Plus, a little humor never hurt anybody 😉

  • Antoinette

    Be the change that you want to see in the world.
    Gandhi
    This always inspires me to be the very best me I can be. It always teaches me to let go of the ego who is never satisfied or wants to be selfish .
    This quote leads with compassion and loving kindness at our true hearts desire.
