Everything will be alright in the end, if it's not alright then it's not the end.

I like this one. My DW uses it but but I can't remember who it is attributed to.

" Don't marry the person you can live with, marry the person you can't live without"

I've seen this in a wedding card and really like it. Not too sure whose quote it is.

This too shall pass.  Not sure if it is the Dalai Lama. This is my favourite.

I have affirmations on my wall. My lovely daughter made a series of them for Mothers Day. I am 2 years after an injury, that has left me with a few surgeries and on going chronic pain and other problems.

Love the thread  ;D

As a child my mother use to say when I pulled a face
If the wind changes you will stay like that.
Another what will the neighbors think.

Go to bunnings buy some wood build a bridge and get over it.
I child-proofed my house, but they still get in!

You haven't failed at anything until you stop trying.

I used to wonder why someone didn't do something until I realized I was someone.

Those that mind don't matter and those that matter don't mind.


Love sayings and quotes - could go on and on - love this thread - oh and that means I will pick up some new ones too.
