Thank you Mary, glad you liked it. Yep, definitely gave the creativeness a good push that was needed. There were a lot of other things that helped out, this quote was just one of the bigger ones that stood out. I do hope this little quote helps someone else out. To some people it might not mean a thing, but to others (like me) it spoke directly to me. :)

Thanks again!

You are very welcome and I agree with you but I believe that it will speak to a lot more of the members then you think. It may not mean a thing but it all depends on how you want to interpret the quote. I know it spoke to me I am going to reread it myself.

Hello Denise,

Thank you for the kind message. I'm very happy that my little post brought your spirits up. It always puts a smile on my face when I know I have helped at least one person (like you) become more inspired and up-beat about something. That's awesome. :)

I've had quite a few up's and down's in my life (just like everybody does), and I could usually get past the downers fairly easily and quickly. What started my whole "down spiral," was an extremely bad and horrifying event that happened to me when I was 17, not someone else, me. (If you want to hear my story, you can PM me if you'd like.)

I got even worse there for quite some time before I even thought about being positive. When I did, it took me years to start getting better with pretty much everything. (Physically and mentally) That quote is only one of the things I read (one of the major ones) that changed my attitude and thinking patterns, and I'm glad that I did.
So now I try to be as Optimistic as I can about almost everything, and let me tell you, I'm so glad that I did.

So again, thank you so much, that really does mean a lot to me.

Cheers,
Jerrick S.
