signs of hope

Hello, sweet friends!

I was noticing this morning all the ways I'm working at keeping my spirits up, these days.  I'm a very "visual" person, and I really find that these sweet messages (below) keep me going.  You know, some days...

A postcard from Veronika...she posted about these cards and other wonderful ones that she scatters around her house here...

Little vintage figures "rockin' on"...

"Everything's Going To Be Just Fine," from Reeta's wonderful shop...

A cool little book with lots and lots of "good advice for hard times..."

Another wonderful print from Vanessa's shop (I didn't know I had such a collection!)...it says "I think that everything is going to be okay..."

 

And we cannot forget this one!  Still there, still getting me through each day. 

I love to see all of these words and images around me as I go about my business...You might think that all they do is remind you that everything is not okay at present, but I find that they really do make me feel better.  As you surely know, it's important (in good times and bad) to keep perspective, and recall that "this, too, shall pass." 

Sometimes I forget that, but it makes all the difference.

Cheers!

These are all so wonderful. And yes, I agree that it is important to come upon these little reminders throughout the day. It helps! xx

These messages are lovely. It is so important to stay optimistic and hopeful . I've started adding quotes to my blog and my favourite quote of the moment is:

"Success is going from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm."

Winston Churchill

This is what keeps me going, in times of crisis of confidence.

Hey that's my card, (with a whopping great mistake in it!) Positive words are really needed by me at the moment, thanks for the reminder Amy.

We recently came out of a long tough battle - some parts of the day you forget and then you remember again and you have to find little things like these to keep your head up. Children are such a huge help in this cheering up department!

These are great! And thanks for joining my Flickr group!
