Inspirational Quotes and a New Path

inspirational quotes

Inspirational quotes. Sometimes life changes direction. You are traveling down a straight path, up ahead you can see a light and then suddenly out of nowhere everything get flipped upside down and inside out. A new path is laid out in front of you, a path you haven’t chosen , a path you never thought you’d have to take. As you stand starring down this road, you must begin anew. One foot in front of the other walking blindly until you can see again.

Due to some unfortunate events this week, a friend’s life has changed forever. In the blink of an eye his world will never be the same again. Amid the chaos it was heartwarming to see how friends and family rallied. People gathered from far and wide to offer support and lend a hand. Yesterday, as I was returning from Vancouver Island, I took this photograph and thought that it would fit beautifully with this quote I discovered.

We shouldn’t wait for a tragedy to notice the good things in life and to appreciate the small pleasures. So today I challenge all of you to find someone and do one nice thing to make them happy.

Quite often inspirational quotes can help us get through difficult times, what are some of your favourites?

    Great post. Appreciating the little things when all else is terrible is easier said than done, but it’s definitely important to try. This is something I continuously try and put into practice, and it’s quite hard.

    1. It’s extremely difficult but I think sometimes it’s the only way to stay sane.

    That is so sad to hear about your friend…hard to say anything else really…

    1. It was an awful, tragic accident. I really felt that I needed to write some sort of tribute.

  25. soo true lovely babe

    1. Thank you! xo

  26. Such a lovely quote, and so very true. So sorry to hear about your friend, as they say, what ever happens is meant to be and happens for a reason.

    xoxo

    1. Yeah it was pretty devastating but that quote just seemed to apply. xo

  27. Such a lovely quote. Thank you for sharing 🙂

  28. I am definitely guilty of not stopping to smell the roses but its something I am now more conscious of and I work on it daily. I hope your friend is healing and I am happy he has friends and loved ones for comfort.

  29. Pam aka MzZoomer

    Beautiful post Caroline. All so very very true and such a lovely quote.

  30. I’ve been preaching this message for years. We are too complacent and assume life will be forever normal. That assumption is often wrong. I had a friend younger than me die suddenly from a brain-tumor; another, also younger than me, had a stroke. Tragedy is common and we need to treat life as a fragile, precious gift.

    Oh, and you used to dance professionally?! Wow! I’m impressed.
