Bumper Sticker


Saw a bumper sticker today that resonated.  It said: "Encourage your hopes, not your fears"

I've found that works.

I have a long collection of wise sayings. Here are a few


A small key opens big doors.

Fear makes the wolf bigger than he is

All the flowers of all the tomorrows are in the seeds of today.

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass....it's about learning to dance in the rain!

When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better!"

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear

10 % of life is what happens to you.The other 90% is how you respond.

Hate injures the hater, not the hated.

Bitterness and true happiness are choices that we make, not conditions that fall upon us.

"You can't control the wind but you can set your sails."

"We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves."

. So long as we need to control other people, how ever benign our motives, we are captive to that need. In giving them freedom, we free ourselves.

You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to.

Lying to others might be wrong, but lying to yourself is just a tragedy


And a comical one from Calvin and Hobbes ""It's not denial. I'm just very selective about the reality I accept."
