I thought I'd start a "Quote of the week" topic where we can all enter the best quotes that someone else has written and has impressed you that week.

I remember how much I liked this thread when I first came here back in May 2005. I still do! It's so cool to see the ideas we come up with, even as we struggle.

Dave, did you have any idea this one would still be rumbling along after five years? :)

Much love,
Larry
 
But it seems to me that recovery means being able to carry the more painful components of that past with more ease, as though the burden becomes lighter (or at least easier to balance).

Said by Honey Girl in F&F. Thank you HG. Very profound thought for my mind to mull over.
 
Can I have 2 quotes of the week? This one really struck home.

Thank-you Adam.
 
Personally...I like this one...


"Each of us are individuals with our own specific personality, unique in the universe. So understanding that, how can we possibly expect any of us to have the exact same path through all this crap."

Thank you, John.

"This site, the majority of the times, shows the strength, compassion and decency of the many members here who have been harmed in the past, and still maintain the humanity to give to others. Those are the people importent at this site, those are the ones who represent what this place is truly 'all about'. They are who deserve what best we have to give, to ourself and each other."

Life overall is still a uncomfortable place for me at times, but at least I don't see myself as some freak or alien. I'm feel human for the first time in 25 years, and it feels great. For me, one day at a time. One step at a time.

Well said!
 
I saw this one today from MemoryVault that I thought was pretty good as so many of us tend to do that here.

Hey, I just found a big list and edited out the good stuff. (Hope I don't do that with my life!)

I like this one...says something very poignant about 'picking your battles.'

"You don't have to attend every argument you are invited to."
 
ANother one--maybe not totally appropriate for this forum, but one I like nevertheless:

"It is easier to build stong children than to repair broken men."
 
We have all been created for greater things...to love and to be loved. Love is love...to love a person without any conditions, without expectations. Works of love are works of peace and purity. Works of love are always a means of becoming closer to God, so the more we help each other, the more we really love God better by loving each other. Jesus very clearly said; Love one another as I have loved you. Love in action is what gives us grace. We pray and if we are able to love with a whole heart, then each of us will see the need in others. Those who are unwanted, unloved, and uncared for become just throwaways in the secular minds of society. That is why we must really make everybody feel wanted.

There is something else to remember....that this kind of love begins at home. We cannot truly give of ourselves to others, what we do not already possess inside our own hearts.
This is very important. If I cannot see God's love inside my brothers and sisters, then how can I see that love in somebody else ? Indeed how can I give it to somebody else ?
Everybody has got some good inside them. Some hide it, some neglect it, but it is there.
