Survivor quotes
Sorry to ask here but I have been through a lot recently and am having a hard time keeping going. :( Do you have any quotes that have inspired you to keep on going when it seems like there really isn't much of a point to trying anymore?

Hi! Well from my personal experience it never got any better but I learned to look at everything in a positive point of view. I trained my mind to be positive and then I began to feel positive. I looked up quotes on google, I searched up things like, "motivational quotes, life, and positive" I found random quotes and they sparked a little bit of hope in me. To be honest the quotes aren't what made me feel better. What made me feel better was the way I looked at everything in a positive way and I surrounded myself with positive people and most importantly, believing in myself. If you don't mind me asking, what are you going through that's causing you this much of a hard time?

Don't feel sorry...there's nothing to apologize for. This is as good a place to ask as any.
Here are some quotes that helped me and short bits of advice of friends that helped me when I was in the midst of my crisis's and when I had finished going thru them. Things that helped me see the past crisis as a positive thing and also to have the right attitude to focus on the future.
“The word “crisis” is from the Greek, meaning “a moment to decide.” The recurrent moments of crisis and decision when understood, are growth junctures, points of initiation which mark a release from one state of being and a growth into the next.”
~Jill Purce~
“As with an Antique, the ravages of life upon an individual create a more precious thing in the end, giving one more character and charm, gaining the status of being precious for simply still being.”
~Luna Nebulosa~
“Even the most daring and accomplished people have undergone tremendous difficulty. In fact, the more successful they became, the more they attributed their success to the lessons learned during their most difficult times. Adversity is our teacher. When we view adversity as a guide towards greater inner growth, we will then learn to accept the wisdom our soul came into this life to learn.”
~Barbara Rose~
“If you live on this planet, it is inevitable you will run into hardships, crisis, personal attack, and disasters; that is a given. What is to be determined is whether you simply survive it or overcome it. A survivor is still alive but due to what they've experienced, has stopped living. An overcomer finds ways to deal with and heal from their hurt, pain, disappointment, devastation, confu“If you live on this planet, it is inevitable you will run into hardships, crisis, personal attack, and disasters; that is a given. What is to be determined is whether you simply survive it or overcome it. A survivor is still alive but due to what they've experienced, has stopped living. An overcomer finds ways to deal with and heal from their hurt, pain, disappointment, devastation, confusion and temporary lack of new direction and continues on with life.”
~Luna Nebulosa~
When I was in the middle of my biggest crisis of my life, a friend told me "It is not a selfish thing to love yourself first. Love yourself enough to not settle for less, remove yourself from harmful jobs, relationships, etc. Until you do, you are not loving yourself fully and that and reaching will hold you back in life and from making goals and moving forward.
That word of encouragement hit home and gave me just enough strength to push through my crisis.
Once on the other side I was plagued with the "What if's" of whether I could have done better, critizing myself and any and all decisions I made.
Someone else told me, it doesnt matter what path or road you took to get here, what matters is that you made it. Life is a race where everyone gets to cross the finish line and it doesnt matter how quickly you finish each segment, the detours don't matter, its all in the past. Don't look into the past, look into the future.
Another key thing I was told, forgiveness is a big thing. Forgive yourself for decisions you made, things you did or could have done better. Forgive in your heart, those whose actions affected you, whether they even know you or not.
And then again, i came across information that reminded me of how diamonds are made naturally. They all started as carbon rich rocks. A rock like that looks nothing like a diamond and doesn't have anywhere near the strength a diamond does. Its what that carbon had to go through to become the hardest most indestructable and most beautiful rock we know of today. If halfway through the intense pressure inside the earth it had to go through, the carbon rock cried out, God remove me from this, I can't stand the pressure, then it would not have formed into the diamond of today. What I think is that our souls are the diamonds in the making and to be ready to live in our creators presence, we need to go through the changes and growth that make us strong enough to live for eternity. Well, its a good thought that helps me when my body is tired, hurting, I get some satisfaction knowing my soul is being shaped into a thing of beauty.
