WHEN LIFE SEEMS TO BE DIFFICULT
Have you been going through a bit of an upheaval in life lately? I certainly have and I always find that there is wisdom out there just waiting to be tapped into if you know where to look.Recently I found some fantastic advice from Mandy Hale's book "You are Enough, Heatbreak, Healing and Becoming Whole" and I wanted to share some quotes that I found particularly helpful.
WE CAN RISE ABOVE THE TOUGH TIMES
Last year my Word for 2018 was "Rise" because I wanted to focus on rising above the hurt and upsets of the previous year. What I've come to see is that life is full of good times and bad times - hurt and discouragement can befall us at any stage and we can let it beat us, or we can choose to learn from it and rise up stronger. The more we choose to respond positively, to look for the lessons, and come out on top, the more we appreciate the fact that we are Enough - in fact, we are more than Enough.So, here are five fantastic Mandy Hale quotes that I found to be so encouraging in this season I'm currently in. I hope you enjoy them too - feel free to Pin them or to save them for when you need a reminder that you are Enough.

Very nice inspirational quotes. Lovely to read.. thankyou.
ReplyDeleteThanks - they were just reminders for me that life has its tough seasons, but we always have the resilience to see things through.
DeleteYou always manage to find perfect quotes, Leanne! I greatly enjoyed this post -- it is very inspiring!
ReplyDeleteThanks Donna - Mandy Hale is a favourite of mine for knowing just what to say to inspire me when I need a boost.
DeleteI love quotes Leanne and these are great timing. Thanks for sharing and helping others as you do by sharing your thoughts and what's going on with you xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb - I always find a well thought out quote can really put things into perspective for me - that's why I love to share them.
DeleteWow! These are great quotes. Now I want to read "You Are Enough". I love the message, especially the one about having the courage to live standing with your heart wide open.
ReplyDeleteI thought they were all beautiful and each one spoke to me on some level - that's what I love about quotes.
DeleteYou can't be a good quote Leanne especially when you need some inspiration, motivation or just as a reminder. I like the last one the best 'learning to accept myself as I am'. It must be a week for quotes as I have a post for #ZTT about 5 Quotes that Inspire Change. Have a great week xx
ReplyDeleteI saw your quotes Sue (and pinned a couple of them) and I completely agree that a good quote can be very inspirational (I have Pinterest boards full of them for that exact reason!)
DeleteI've never heard of Mandy Hale before but I love every one of these quotes Leanne. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteMandy actually has a lot of really thoughtful stuff to say Jeremy and I'm glad you enjoyed the quotes.
DeleteAlways good to read where you are headed and interesting to watch the ways in which you are choosing in a time of change. It is quite empowering isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up for #lifethisweek. Next week’s optional prompt: 19/51 Contentment Is…13/5/19 I hope you will join in! Denyse
Thanks Denyse - and yes it is empowering to make choices based soley on what's best for me (and my husband of course) rather than purely on what I "should" be doing - as most of my previous decisions have been!
DeleteThe first and last quotes resonated with me...I think I needed to read these given some stuff I'm going through at the moment. I think this might be a book I need to put on my TBR list
ReplyDeleteI found them really affirming and helpful in approaching a difficult time with positive thoughts and an attitude that says I can get through it. Hopefully you will too Sanch x
DeleteGreat quotes! I can really relate to #2 - years ago I was married to someone addicted to alcohol and gambling. It took getting pushed to the edge before I realized it was time to rise out of it for me and my kids! Thanks for sharing with us at The Blogger's Pit Stop!
ReplyDeleteI have had a challenging year and these quotes are all so wise and encouraging. I read a lot of blog posts and it amazes me that I always find helpful gems that seem to speak to me. We will feature your post on the next Blogger's Pit Stop to be the 'gem' for others.
