belonging, Brené Brown, judgment, Love, personal, Quotes, truth

Thank you fitnessgrad for nominating me for this quote challenge. This is day three of a three day challenge. For previous posts: Day 1 and Day 2.

Rules to be followed:

  • 3 quotes each day
  • Up to 3 nominees to be nominated (no repetition!)
  • Thank the person who nominated you
  • Inform the nominees

My quotes for today are:

“I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment; and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship.” Brené Brown

“Judging others makes us blind, whereas love is illuminating. By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are…If when we judged others, our real motive was to destroy evil, we should look for evil where it is certain to be found, and that is in our own hearts.” Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship

“It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.” The Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens.

Thank you fitnessgrad for nominating me for this quote challenge. This is day two of a three day challenge. For previous posts: Day 1.

Rules to be followed:

  • 3 quotes each day

My quotes for today are:

“Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed and rare.” Brené Brown, The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are

“Promise me you’ll always remember: You’re braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” Christopher Robin to Winnie the Pooh, AA Milne

“Worry is not believing God will get it right, and bitterness is believing God got it wrong.” Timothy Keller

Thank you fitnessgrad for nominating me for this quote challenge. This is day one of a three day challenge.

(Okay something messed up and my Day 2 published before my Day 1. So I’m editing it to switch places.)

Rules to be followed:

  • 3 quotes each day
  • Up to 3 nominees to be nominated (no repetition!)
  • Thank the person who nominated you
  • Inform the nominees

My quotes for today are:

“You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.” Brené Brown

“There’s one sad truth in life I’ve found While journeying east and west – The only folks we really wound Are those we love the best. We flatter those we scarcely know, We please the fleeting guest, And deal full many a thoughtless blow To those who love us best.” Ella Wheeler Wilcox

“Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.” Oscar Wilde

I nominate the following people (check out their blogs – they’re amazing!):
