Monday Inspiration: Everybody Walkin’ This Land

Sunday Inspiration: Gifts

We all have different gifts, so we all have different ways of saying to the world who we are.
—Fred Rogers

Sunday Inspiration: Giving and Taking

Blessed are those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting.
—Elizabeth Bibesco

Sunday Inspiration: Pain

Pain is a kindly, hopeful thing, a certain proof of life, a clear assurance that all is not yet over, that there is still a chance. But if your heart has no pain—well, that may betoken health, as you suppose: but are you certain that it does not mean that your soul is dead?
—A. J. Gossip

Sunday Inspiration: Peace

It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.
—Eleanor Roosevelt

Sunday Inspiration: Optimism

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
—Winston Churchill

Sunday Inspiration: The Price of Anything

The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.
—Henry David Thoreau

Sunday Inspiration: The Light that Is You

Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world.
All things break. And all things can be mended.
Not with time, as they say, but with intention.
So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally.
The broken world waits in darkness for the light that is you.
—L. R. Knost

Sunday Inspiration: Hope

Hope has two beautiful daughters; their names are Anger and Courage. Anger at the way things are, and Courage to see that they do not remain as they are.
—Saint Augustine

Sunday Inspiration: A Meaningful Life

To make life a little better for people less fortunate than you, that’s what I think a meaningful life is. One lives not just for oneself but for one’s community.
—Ruth Bader Ginsburg
