Share a sentence or an image that helped you during a difficult moment!
Hello everyone!
We all face difficult moments and sometimes there are words or images that can help us, for their meaning and for the positive emotions they can give us.
It may be something you have found by your own or it may be something someone else shared with you.
What does it represent for you?
In what way did it help you?
Let's remember about it today!

This is the day the only day I can live, today, right now. Let it be.
Stay safe
What did I do right?
From Lauryn Hill's "Everything Is Everything":
"What is meant to be, will be
After winter, must come spring
Change, it comes eventually…"

Here's another I love from Carl Sagan's Pale Blue Dot (1994):
'Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.
Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.
The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.
It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known."
@proactiveOrange2180 thanks I love that quote and the pictures from the space ship turning its cameras back on earth. Yes hope that we learn the lessons and learn them well.
Im not yet where Id like to be, but im thankful Im not at the same place as when I started!!
@MelG919 yes I hear you. I remember posting a sign on my wall that said, what did I do right?
@BeyondTheInvisible "We live in a world filled with more hate than love, but I won't let that stop me!"
Make a great day! instead of have a great day @BeyondTheInvisible
Several years ago, a colleague said this to me and I looked at her quizzically. She explained the phrase by saying, "great things don't just happen, we make them happen..." Ever since, that's been my little effort to empower the people I connect with to think in a strong, positive way :)
waking up is hard to do. But it is worth it.
I went through a period of joblessness and I refused to give up and found work. The one phrase that really helped me was: "Just focus on what works." For me what "worked" was to send out 3 resumes a day not matter what and keep going. And "just focus on what works."
Those who look outside Dream, those who look inside Wake!! - Carl Jung
@MelG919 that is very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
@MelG919 nice one
