A few years ago I signed up for a free email service that sends me a daily quote. Some are from famous people who’re well known. Other quotes are from more obscure sources, people I never heard of. But whatever the source, the wisdom is often the perfect nugget I need to hear. Not sure how that happens…that what I need for inspiration or encouragement falls so neatly and regularly in my email inbox. But so it does.
Here are a few recent favorites:
The work an unknown good man has done is like a vein of water flowing hidden underground, secretly making the ground green. ~ Thomas Carlyle
Blessed are those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting. ~ Elizabeth Asquith Bibesco
As one’s fortunes are reduced, one’s spirit must expand to fill the void. ~ Winston Churchill
Money is a “way of keeping score in life,” says T. Boone Pickens. But that is just for those who like playing the game. The real goal is to live with grace and dignity. You can do that with a small amount of money…or not do it with a fortune. ~ Bill Bonner
We are drowning in information, but starved for knowledge ~ John Naisbitt
And finally, on this rainy, chilly day, longing for spring to come, I love this:
“Spring is God’s way of saying, ‘One more time.'” ~ Robert Orben
