My question today is: Do you have a favorite quote/mantra/poem? Something that inspires you or gives you strength when times are tough? Words to live by? Please share :)
My words to live by:
God grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change
The courage to change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference.
Thanks for coming by! Be sure to stop by An Island Life for more Aloha Friday fun.

I love the Serenity Prayer too!
I also love Philippians 4:13
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
My Aloha Friday is HERE
I sometimes say, "God will only put you through what he can pull you through."
I have always gone by - "Live and let live." It teaches tolerance and acceptance...
I guess it's a sort of mantra -- it's something my grandmother (who raised me) always said to me when things were tough -- "keep your chin up and keep moving". I say that to myself a lot when things seem hard and/or complicated -- and it reminds me of her as well, which also helps because she was one *tough* lady :-)
Yes...Proverbs 3:5
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
It's also on my daughter's headstone.
Happy Aloha Friday!
"Never speak the unpleasant truth or pleasant untruth" - These were the pearls of wisdom of my late aunt.
Whatever I'm going through is what I can bear. Whatever I have or don't have is what I can handle.
actions speak louder than words
I can do all things through him who strengthens me - Phil. 4:13
