Words may seem so simple on paper, but they are extremely powerful. They can create emotions or even take us on a journey by using the creativity and imagination of our minds. Always Look on the Bright Side is a collection of words to help you unwind and be thankful for every day.
This title has over 500 quotations from the anonymous to the famous. Some pull at the heart-strings, make you laugh, or just inspire you to live life to the fullest. It is broken down into the following chapters: Celebrate Today, Celebrate Special Days, Celebrate the Seasons, Celebrate Special People, Celebrate Yourself and Your Work. There are quotes for every day and then the special days, like birthdays and holidays we experience every year.
Let me leave you with a few of my favorites from Always Look on the Bright Side:
The past is behind, learn from it; The future is ahead, prepare for it; The present is here, live it. – Thomas Monson
Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live. -Anonymous
You are educated. Your certification is in your degree. You may think of it as the ticket to the good life. Let me ask you to think of an alternative. Think of it as your ticket to change the world. – Tom Brokaw
You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance. – Franklin P. Jones
