Beautiful lilac flowerI know this is a day late for Motivational Monday, but I decided I am starting my week over starting today.  So, here are some wonderful quotes from some amazing women.  Enjoy.

Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn. - Harriet Beecher Stowe

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, "I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along." You must do the thing you think you cannot do. - Eleanor Roosevelt

Don't compromise yourself. You are all you've got. - Janis Joplin

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much. - Mother Theresa

If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain. - Dolly Parton

You can write me down in history with hateful, twisted lies, you can tread me in this very dirt, but still, like dust, I'll rise. - Maya Angelou

Have a great week, everyone!

In the immortal words of Scarlett O'Hara, Mary, "Tomorrow is another day."  I always hated that quote because, in its full context, it meant not to deal with what's right in front of you.  Instead, put it off to tomorrow and deal with it then.  Well, I dealt with yesterday.  Today is my tomorrow.  Brand new day, brand new attitude.  Glad you enjoyed the quotes.

You are very welcome, Monique.  I'm glad I could motivate.  That's what I found from these quotes.

I agree, Toula.  I love them.  These are also awesome ladies.  But, don't we all have a bit of "awesome" in us?  We just gotta let it shine through. ;)

I thought they were good quotes, too, Missy.  I also think quotes speak for themselves.  Have a great day!

Good morning Heather--Just checking . . . I am glad your smile is back. Quote, pictures and songs can say as much as an entire set of encyclopedias that no one has any more.  Lov 'ya.

Time heals           I put this together just for you

You are so very right, Mary.  Thank you for the flowers.  They are quite lovely.  They brought a smile back to my face as well.

As far as getting that rainbow, I've found that I can sleep during the rain and get up just for the rainbow. That way I don't have to put up with the rain, and I get my beauty sleep in at the same time. LOL

The rain can be nice sometimes, too, Russel.  Especially since it can be so cleansing.  But not if it destroys things.  I like your attitude, though.  :)
