Carol’s Quotes

“Focus on your strengths, not your weaknesses.
Focus on your character, not your reputation.
Focus on your blessings, not your misfortunes.”
― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

“We become so focused on the individual events and circumstances of our lives, so eager to label them as "good" or "bad", when in fact, everything is just LIFE! Everything, all of it, it's all just LIFE.”
― C. JoyBell C.

“The great problem with the message of both religion and spirituality, today, is that the focus is placed upon alienating oneself into the light; instead of placing the focus on going and finding those who are in the darkness, and lighting a candle, and sitting with them, until they hurt no more.”
― C. JoyBell C.
