Most of All

Most of All 
author: unknown
 
Thanksgiving Day brings to mind
the blessings in our lives
that usually go unnoticed:
a home that surrounds us
with comfort and protection;
delicious food, for pleasure
in both eating and sharing;
clothes to snuggle up in,
books and good entertainment
to expand our minds;
and freedom to worship our God.
Most of all we are thankful
for our family and friends,
those treasured people
who make our lives extra special.
 
 
HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!

"It's lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believed in myself." ~Muhammed Ali
Hey positive people! How's it going? I haven't made a post on this blog in awhile so I wanted to stop by and hopefully encourage you. ( But don't worry, I'll keep this post short & sweet. :) ) Affirmations & inspirational quotes are kinda' my thing, so when I ran across this quote from Muhammed Ali, I felt the need to share: "It's lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believed in myself." In other words: BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING! In life there will be many challenges, some you take on yourself and others life just hands you, but being afraid of them will never help. You've gotta' to believe in yourself! And have faith that you can take on any adversity that comes your way! If you don't believe in yourself, you'll never accomplish anything. And if you don't have faith in yourself, how can you expect anyone else to? Consider Muhammed Ali, now this is a man who had some high confidence & self-esteem, to the point where most just considered him conceited. But sometimes it takes that much confidence to overcome your challenge. The bigger the challenge, the more confidence you need! And look what he was able to accomplish! He became one of the greatest fighters in the world! And whether you're into boxing or not, you can't deny the impact he had, not just in boxing, but period. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks or says, you have to stand tall and remember that anything is possible if you believe! And if you just so happen to fail, try again! And again, and again... sometimes the challenges you will face are great, but I'm a firm believer that you are never given more than you can handle, so DON'T GIVE UP and KEEP ON BELIEVING!
