A TIME FOR EVERYTHING There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the sun. A time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time for decay and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones, a time to gather, a time to embrace and a time to refrain, a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. - ECC -

Hi @Faith-and-Hope
I read that you have landed somewhere but I don't know where you are right now - I am glad you and yours have arrived safely wherever that is and have started to have a good time
@Former-Member
Yes - we must guard our hearts - it is a place within us that is entirely ours in spite of what others tried to do to us at times. Another saying on the same subject is from the Gospels
"The mouth speaks of what the heart is full of" - how many people reveal their inner state by what they say - yes indeed - the heart is the guardian of the soul - I just thought that one up

I know, @Decadian, got it from one of your posts 😉 This ones for @Faith-and-Hope,
"LIFE IS NOT MEASURED BY THE NUMBER OF BREATHS YOU TAKE, BUT BY THE MOMENTS THAT TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY"
me think THIS is mindfulness 🙂 What to you think @Former-Member, ?

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND
Hi everyone .... 😊
Yes @Former-Member .... seek out moments of joy when and where you can, and on the days you can't, just breathe .... just have a day and wait for the next one .... wait for the change to happen ....
This one is for you too @mandy84 .... maybe you can find some rest on this thread too ... step outside your own situation for a moment and breathe the air elsewhere .... this is a good thread to do that ....
💗💕

Re: QUOTES THAT SETTLE MY MIND
Thanks, @Faith-and-Hope, thought you might get a few moments overseas that 'take your breath away'
I still love my garden the most but my poor old house needs a lotto win lol 🙂
