I Love Motivational Quotes


I don't want to be one of those people who are annoyingly super positive all the time. I know, as well as anyone here, that life can painful, that sometimes things happen that just aren't okay. I also know that sometimes there's nothing we can do about some of these things, that sometimes we just have to let ourselves feel sad for as long we need to.

But I like to think that sometimes, with some things, there is something that can be done. And I want to find out, this year, just what I'm capable of doing. I still don't know for sure what's possible, but I'm determined to find out.

I see the valence you are trying to strike. Lol. It’s true. There is authentic motivation and there is the person babbeling positivity becuase they think is makes them better

Barbara Ehrenright writes about that positivity stuff and I love the way she lays it out. Sometimes that stuff morphs into simple denialism and that is off limits to me and I know I am not the only one. I like the truth and I like LOVE. I say that is all that is needed. I would never lie to someone just to make myself feel better.

@St0ut Yes, and I'm working on knowing the difference between the two.

@Platoscave That sounds like a good way to be.

@St0ut balance not valence, heh!

I agree with you I know I’m broken inside and outside it’s this world that we live in a broken world but one thing I know about my self real love is sacrificing in all we do right? Get something back or not we are meant to love and serve one another I’m broken once again and I need a savior everyday Jesus baby

Good luck.

I feel awful now. I actually dozed off in the middle of reading this. Not because it was boring. I had a huge meal and where I am at has a waterfall and the sound is soothing.

@TeresaRudolph71 Thanks. I love that catfish. It is still there! I said hello to it last night!

One thing I notice is when I write on my phone, my paragraph lengths are much shorter than when I write on a monitor.

I also notice that as the years pass my paragraph lengths in all my writing at work are getting shorter.
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
@JoyfulSilence Yeah, I'm trying to work on that, though sometimes I just have a lot to say.
JoyfulSilence · 46-50, M
@JoyfulSilence Say as much as you want!

I'm sure these perpetually positive people have their moments to, 😔but just keep it to their self. Especially women, we're suppose to be nice all the time and SMILE! 🙂 I'm with you on this thought, working on what I can do. Wishing you the best. 🍀
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
@Peaches Yes, sometimes I feel like I'm supposed to smile and act happy all the time, no matter what I'm really feeling.

Thank you, and all the best to you also! 💜

What dreams do you have?
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
@Rippie Well, for starters, I need to make enough money to get my own place. Living here is okay for now, I guess, but I know that I can't stay here forever. I have other dreams too, but most are harder to talk about. One other thing I want to do is get back to playing the piano regularly, and get back to the skill level that I was at many years ago. I realize that this will take time, effort, and self-discipline, but I believe that I can do it, in time.
Rippie · 31-35, M
@TeresaRudolph71 I know you can do it. That reminds me. I want to get back into playing guitar again. I have a Yamaha acoustic guitar. I might not be the best singer but I love to play everything from oldies to folk to pop songs
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
@Rippie Thanks, and I hope you get back to playing the guitar again too. I'm sure you can do it also, since you did it before. :)
