Just About Quotes

There is just something special about reading quotes. They can make your day brighter or even make you laugh. Some bring back the best memories ever, but there are also the ones that bring sadness and make you want to cry. Always seek the quotes that bring a positive outlook to your day.

My favorite quotes are the ones that empower and inspire me to make my day a better one. Then, I have to admit, I really enjoy the quotes that make me laugh because it brings a healing emotionally and internally that helps me through those tough and overwhelming times.

With so many responsibilities in life, living in this busy world, we need to have positive and empowering words in the day-to-day adventure that we take on.

Give me a quote for the day that connects with my feelings, then my boost, (having coffee and a quote) has begun. We all have different upbringings and experiences that open up each of our worlds in an individual way.

I will share some of my favorite quotes with all and hope someone else will be able to find a connection with some of them. There are a lot of quotes that most people have heard, and hopefully I will be able to share some new ones that will have a positive effect in the life of others.

Feel free to send me quotes that you would like to have me post and share. Please keep them G-Rated, because that’s the way I prefer. I will be updating and revising from time to time, so happy quotes to all.
