Welcome Wreath by Tommia Wright

How do we deal with adversity? Do we run from it? Be passive around it? Or meet it head on?

Here are some quotes worth pondering:

“Sometimes we stare so long at a door that is closing that we see too late the one that is open.” ~ Alexander Graham Bell

“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds.” ~ Edward Abbey

“I truly believe that we can overcome any hurdle that lies before us and create the life we want to live. I have seen it happen time and time again.” ~ Gillian Anderson

“Forgive yourself for your faults and your mistakes and move on.” ~ Les Brown

“Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength.”-Corrie Ten Boom

“We should strive to welcome change and challenges, because they are what help us grow. Without them we grow weak like the Eloi in comfort and security. We need to constantly be challenging ourselves in order to strengthen our character and increase our intelligence. ” ~ H.G. Wells, The Time Machine
