This too shall pass.
And really hope it will do. Soon.
The ones I live by are 'don't take things personally' (source: my husband), 'everything happens for a reason' (source: my father) and 'do what you love' (have just worked that one out for myself!). Sorry that's three but its hard to cut down!!
Never listen advices - included this one ;) and do things seriously by don't consider yourself serious (not easy to tranlate...)...
have a nice day !
hello again dear jane i've to think about the most perfect and best advices. will let you know soon. happy day*
"just keep swimming" - I think it was Dory from Pixar's Nemo :-)
Hasn't failed me yet!
When God closes one door he opens another. I find it is usually even better than the one closed. Another is enjoy the journey. In my early 20's I spent way to much time stressing over stuff, now I just try to enjoy the journey.
Go to bed angry. This has saved my marriage. Sleeping on it seems to make most things seem trivial and better in the morning--when if we had talked it through the night before we could have fought all night.
"everything happens for a reason"
beijos
breathe.
BE the change you want to see in the world.
your answer is exactly what I wanted to say..."this too shall pass"... my late husband used to say it all the time... and ... it always did.
and thanks Jane for giving us this pleasant game to play every day... hope you're enjoying yourself :)
Never postpone joy.
Breathe.
Trust in the Universe.
(all of which I would like to have inked on my skin one day as a constant reminder.)
My Father once told me "your reputation will follow you in life." - Excellent advice.
Without even scrolling down to see the answer, I thought "this too shall pass"! I think its the most sound piece of advice in the world.
My parents always taught me to realize my self worth. It has helped me my entire life.
Don't do your worrying at night as perspective changes with the light of day.
From my Aunt Rosilie, "Don't sweat the small stuff". From (I think)Oscar Wilde, "The best revenge is a good life"
I had to think about it but now I am pretty sure that "count to ten" is the best advice I have ever got. And also to accept the things you can't change. Or live the moment. A hard one this is :-)
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
Treat every job you work at like you own the company. It has helped me tremendously.
One "free" advice I give to my friends that are moms is: pick your battle. xoxo
Nothing stays the same......
What goes around, comes around.
don't eat yellow snow
"live each day to the fullest" - my mom
you can do anything you put your mind to. thanks dad ... that advice has served me well !
Shut up and listen!!
oh, and here's one from my mother... keep your middle and fourth finges together and your hands will always look elegant!!!
love this last one about the fingers. I wonder if that could make me a lady ;)
"relax and enjoy" is the best advise given to me, and I'm still trying to learn it.
don´t worry, be happy=
don´t think about it, the sun is shining outside!
and remember to breathe!
everything but death can be mended.
