A Whole Lotta Good Ideas

I love good quotes and illustrated motivational words or encouragements. This time of year sometimes marks a point when you have to push through with your new years resolutions if you made any, and often, all it can take is some good words to remind me to perhaps change my perspective or keep me pushing through with my goals. Here are a few that I like and I hope you enjoy as well.










A Whole Lotta Love,

The True Joy



This is the true joy of life.


The being used for a purpose

Recognized by yourself as a mighty one.

The being a force of nature

Instead of a feverish, selfish

Little clod of ailments and grievances

Complaining that the world will not

Devote itself to making you happy.

I am of the opinion that my life

Belongs to the whole community

And as long as I live,

It is my privilege to do for it

Whatever I can.

I want to be thoroughly

Used up when I die,

For the harder I work the more I live.

I rejoice in life for its own sake.

Life is no brief candle to me.

It is a sort of splendid torch

Which I've got hold of

For the moment

And I want to make it burn

As brightly as possible before

Handling it on to future generations.

Put love into the world.

Put love into the world and heaven with all its beatitudes and glories becomes a reality. 

Love is everything; it is the key of life, and its influences are those that move the world

-R.W. Trine

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?
- Mary Oliver

Wild and precious life

I saw the poet, Mary Oliver, speak last year and this quote has stuck with me since that time. And now I ask you....
