Friendship, forgiveness, strength, kindness and life lessons

Friendship, forgiveness, strength, kindness and life lessons quotes, sayings and poems.


A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.


Strength comes from overcoming, what you thought you could not do.


We either make ourselves miserable or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.



We rarely lose friends and lovers, we just gradually figure out who our real ones are.





Having courage and showing courage mean we face our fears. We are able to say, " I have fallen, but I will get up."



Maybe not today....



Good friends help you find important things when you have lost them... your smile, your hope, and your courage.





It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.




You cannot always change circumstances but you can always change your reaction to them.



Remember, as long as you are breathing it's never too late to start a new beginning.





Be kind to one another. Even if you disagree on stuff.




Love and kindness are never wasted. They always make a difference.




Taking action even though you are afraid, is how you become courageous.




Some people come into your life to teach you things you didn't even know you needed to learn.




It's not the strength of the body that counts, but the strength of the spirit.



When the darkness of depression closes in...



Change can be scary, but you know what's scarier? Allowing fear to stop you from growing, evolving, and progressing.






Forgiveness doesn't excuse their behavior. Forgiveness prevents their behavior from destroying your heart.




The tiny seed knew that in order to grow, it needed to be dropped in dirt, covered in darkness, struggle to reach the light.

We are all strangers to our hidden potential until we confront problems that reveal our capabilities

We are all strangers to our hidden potential until we confront problems that reveal our capabilities.


You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.
 

Life's challenges are not suppose to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are.


Stop beating yourself up! You are a work in progress, which means you get there a little at a time, not all at once.

No matter how man times I break down, There is always a little piece of me that says.... No, You're not done yet Get Back Up!
 

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


Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.


Hope is like the sun, which, as we journey toward it, casts the shadow of our burdens behind us.
 

All things splendid have been achieved by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstance...
 

Let someone love you just the way you are - as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.
 
Rise above the storm and you will find the sunshine.


The only thing that hurts harder than a failure is not trying.


To get up when you are down, to fight more intensely when you are struggling; to put in the extra effort when you are in sheer pain, to comeback when nobody expects you to, and to stand tall when everyone is pulling you down are what make a champion.


The greater your storm the brighter your rainbow.

Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try

Dead Last is greater than Did Not Finish which trumps Did Not Start.


Pain is temporary, quitting lasts forever.
 
 
Make things happen!
 

 In this world, some people will throw stones in your path. It is up to you what you make from them; A wall or a bridge.
 
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
 

Success isn't given. It's earned.
 

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that wont work.
 

It's not who you are that holds you back; it's who you think you're not.

We will either find a way or make one.

You don't get it by hoping. You don't get it easy. You get it, by getting off your ass working for it every second of every day. For the rest of your life.

You have the power to change.

Self control



There is no one giant step that does it, it's a lot of little steps.
 
 
Strive for progress, not perfection.
 

Good things come to those who work their asses off and never give up!
 

Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.

Exercise to be fit, not skinny! Eat to nourish your body and Always ignore the doubters and unhealthy examples that were once feeding you.

Stop saying "I wish" start saying, "I will"
 

We can throw stones, complain about them, stumble over them, climb over them, or build with them.
 

Every new day you are given an opportunity... To learn something new. To do something better. To be more that you were yesterday.

Three simple rules: 1. If you don't go after what you want, you'll never get it. 2. If you don't ask, the answer will always be no. 3. If you don't step forward, you will always be in the same spot. So go for what you want, ask questions, and take that one step forward because you never know where it might lead.
