Quotes for life..2 added by me..Then a poem...

In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity....Albert Einstein



I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.....Mother Teresa



The true measure of a man is not how he behaves in moments of comfort and convenience but how he stands at times of controversy and challenges......Martin Luther King Jr.



If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity, it would be this: Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me...Ann Landers



Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict....William E. Channing



Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature....Helen Keller



Don't be afraid your life will end; be afraid that it will never begin....Hansen, Grace



**************************************************************************************************



You know I've always believed in Karma. I am in no way Jesus, so therefore yes I have sinned. Because of that fact I am in no way immune from being "punished" for doing something wrong. I have also repented, which has in turn granted me many, many, blessings......Foia



Being in the right or wrong time, however you see it can land you in a place that you are supposed to be. There are always 2 maybe 3 roads one can travel. Think carefully before you waste your gas on the route you think is best, because prices are rising every day....Foia





And now a poem:





I am me

I write

I tell

My

Testimony

But only I

Can alter my story



I have been broken

In half

Jumped

Off of the wall

Just like

Humty Dumpty

When he had a great fall



My head is hard

But my heart is soft

I've been through a lot

And yes I've taken notes

So the next time

I fill in the bubble correct

So I don't continue

To make the same mistakes



I can admit

That I am not

Though I may look

PERFECT

So I've been told

By so many people

From all over the world

I have to tell myself

That's not true

I am a work in progress

Who might break

But that's why

We have glue

Beautiful! Your poetry is so so so on point and I think sometimes it's so hard for me because i am too busy beating myself up and think that I am above mistakes, but we all make them. You have a hard head and a soft heart, do you also have a soft bottom because i was told that if you have a hard head, you get tons of spankings as a child, like i did growing up LOL.

Keep up the good work and keep pressing.

My favorite quote here was from Mother Theresa.
