Three Days – Three Quotes: Day 4

Posted on July 21, 2015 by thecontentedcrafter

Yes, you read it right – I couldn’t resist – I tried really, really hard to resist – but, I. Could. Not. Stop. Myself.

Here it is following on from the wisdom of Buddha, from Winnie-the-Pooh, via AA Milne and from the writings of Dr Martin Luther King

This is not my work – I found this photo online somewhere and have no clue who made it or when. If you know who did please leave a note so I can add credit.

So this wraps up for real my contribution to making the world a more thoughtful place via the contemplation of favourite quotes, I hope you enjoyed them all 🙂

LOL! I love the Buddha quote. I need to hang that throughout my house and life. 😀

I think Buddha and any deities would meet their flocks of people with their own lingo, dialect or language so I loved this quote, Pauline, almost like “Chill out!”
“Homies” may be found in the city but the placard looked very “homey.” 🙂

  I agree Robin – all the masters speak in language their people can understand. Excellent point to raise!

Loved this, Pauline! I do believe in letting go . . . but am better when the s**t is living between my ears. I should print this out and put it where I can see it everyday . . . think I’ll do that . . .
Love your counting; you should come for a visit and let my Mum re-school you . . . 😉

Hahaha!! I need to make a T-shirt out of this one, Pauline, and wear it to yoga class. I will never be able to hold a pose and see myself in the mirror without snorting in laughter and likely disrupting the class repeatedly. But oh, it would be worth the irritable looks, as I’d just point down to the quote and smile.
Brilliant.

Thanks for the giggles. It’s a beautiful piece of art and a fun and funny sentiment. All the other famous authors would be proud. I hope the original artist pops up one day. He/she will be tickled.
