In honor of February, which in our culture is love month, I wanted to share some really powerful quotes someone sent to me that will hopefully inspire you to have a better more fulfilling life.
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness, in a descending spiral of destruction.” “Mankind must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.”
“… but on the day when the storms of disappointment rage, the winds of disaster blow, and the tidal waves of grief beat against our lives, if we do not have a deep and patient faith, our emotional lives will be ripped to shreds.”
“We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never give up infinite hope”.
“Take the first step in faith. You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”
“We must learn to live together as brothers or we are going to perish together as fools.”
“Forgiveness is not an occasional act; it is a permanent attitude.”
And the quote that got me out of my head and into my heart, the one that led me to discovering myself is “the price of freedom is eternal vigilance”. If you want to change something about your life, you must be vigilant.
You cannot stop and start…the growth comes through consistent acts.
