Did you ever hear a quote, mantra or phrase that really hit you? It summed up your deepest thoughts and wishes in a few words.
Recently, I was watching a reality show when a new father said about his baby’s mother, “She was built to be strong.” These words spoke to me. I think of it any time I’m confronting a challenging situation.
But there are others.
In this post, a writer lists 20 Carl Jung quotes including this:
“Depression is like a woman in black. If she turns up, don’t shoo her away. Invite her in, offer her a seat, treat her like a guest and listen to what she wants to say.”
And this:
“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”
Do any of these speak to you? If they hold a modicum of truth, write it down and return to it when you need hope, encouragement and assurance that you’re not alone in you’re experience.
