A friend shared this quote with me recently: “Often wrong, never in doubt.” No, no, it wasn’t about me. It was just shared with me. I’m too often in doubt for this to ever apply to me. But I immediately thought of a few acquaintances who should have this for their personal motto. Bet you’ve known a few of these folk too.
Well, a little humor on a Friday is a good thing…so next time you’re with someone who knows all, you can think of this and enjoy a little smile to yourself. Happy Friday!
A few new favorites…
My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just enjoy your ice cream while it’s on your plate. – Thornton Wilder
If you want to be happy, be. – Leo Tolstoy
The thing that is really hard and really amazing is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself. – Anna Quindlen
She took the leap and built her wings on the way down.
You have brains in your head and feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own and you know what you know. And you are the one who’ll decide where to go. – Dr. Seuss
Today is a new day. – Chicken Little
Earth’s crammed with heaven. – Elizabeth Barrett Browning
She decided to enjoy more and endure less.

A successful person is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks that others throw at her. – David Brinkley
Anything you are good at contributes to happiness. – Bertrand Russell
A strong woman understands the importance of creating space for personal well-being, spiritual nourishment, and regeneration in order to maintain her authenticity, especially when the universe whacks her with its two-by-four and hands her days when it takes a great deal of courage just to show up. – Laura Folse
Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.
She discovered that she was the one she’d been waiting for.
Saw these recently…I’m not familiar with this artist*, but I like the way she thinks! I saw some cards with these quotes, and one thing lead to another. She has a plethora of items available from a variety of sources. Actually, I don’t know if these quotations are original to Shannon, but I’m giving her credit.
Quotes from Shannon Martin:
“If it weren’t for my mood swings, I wouldn’t get any exercise at all.”
“My liquid diet is going well, so far I’ve lost two days.”
“The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.”
“Hospitality is making your guests feel at home, even if you wish they were.”
“I want my children to have all the things I couldn’t afford. Then I want to move in with them.”
“Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.”
“You can’t scare me. I have children.”
