Mottos to live by -

When one door closes another one shuts.

To Thine Own Self Be True.

Do as you would be done by

Do as you would be done by works for me.

I collect Mottoware so could bore for ages but I suppose that 'To thine own self be true' is mine.

Nice to see you absent.

To thine own self be true...
Also ...tell the truth and shame the devil ( not sure if I made that one up though)

The motto I’ve found most helpful to me in my life has been this -
Waste Not Fresh Tears Over Old Griefs.
( Euripides)
When I’m feeling sorry for myself and find my past mistakes and personal sorrows overwhelming me, this is what I say to myself to drown them out.
What is your personal motto that’s helped you in the tougher times of your life ?

Thank you for that quote. Find myself in the same position, more often than not. Shall write it down at look at it whenever it’s needed.

Don't sweat the small stuff..... and it's all small stuff.

Do as you would be done by. Matthew 7.12 .Used every day in my nursing career, especially in the difficult situations you can be faced with.

This too shall pass

Life is too short to stuff a mushroom

The light at the end of the tunnel is an on coming train.
(The mushroom one used to be mine Lucca, then I realised how scrumptious stuffed mushrooms actually are).

All will be well, all will be well, all manner of things will be well - Dame Julian of Norwich

“Never trouble trouble, ‘till trouble troubles you”!

Like others, do unto others as you would be done by and particularly in the last year: it will pass.

Do unto others before they do it to you.

Do no harm, but take no shit.

It's a long road that has no turns (old Irish saying basically meaning this too shall pass)

Love that one Oops ?

Don’t promise when you’re happy
Don’t reply when you are angry
Don’t decide when you are sad.

Yesterday I was so clever I wanted to change the world
Now I am older I want to change myself.

Smile while you still have teeth.

If you don’t like where you are, move, you are not a tree.

gingster my mother had a quote for every occassion!

I myself am made up of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.

Inner beauty is great but a bit of lipstick never hurts.

Same as Lucca - this too shall pass.

Suck it and see.
It is what it is.
