IWSG
These last few weeks have been very crazy. We’ve had birthdays, a book release, health issues, appointments, NaNoWriMo to name a few. The support of my friends, family, & fans/readers have been overwhelming. You guys completely and totally rock.
For today’s installment of IWSG I’d like to share a few quotes/sayings that really inspire me. They remind me that I’m not alone. I have support. And when things are rough, I will remain on solid ground through it all.
“You can’t let praise or criticism get to you. It’s a weakness to get caught up in either one.” ~~John Wooden
“Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired and success achieved.” ~~Helen Keller
“When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up.”~~Les Brown
“The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.” ~~Matthew 7:25
I hope some some of these encourage you as they have me!

Some good advice here, though I’ve never considered Les Brown as a source for a quote. What he said makes sense though.
