Thanks. All I really ask for is encouraging words when I'm at my lowest points. Especially because I'll have to work even harder to cover my losses after this accident.
That's true.
When I was about 6 or 7, and my life just flipped up, I read a lot of Winnie the Pooh. The words in that, surprisingly, are some of the most hopeful things I've read. I posted them before on a different thread, but I'll post them here, too.
"We will be friends until forever, just you wait and see."
"Poetry and Hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get you. And all you can do is go where they can find you."
"How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
"If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you."
"Love is taking a few steps backward, maybe even more... to give way to the happiness of the person you love."
" 'I wonder what piglet is doing' thought Pooh, 'I wish I was there to be doing it too.' "
"It is hard to be brave, when you're only a very small animal."
"You can't stay in the corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes."
"A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of honey left inside."
"Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known."
"If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever."
"A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference."
"I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long."
"Some people care too much. I think it's called love."
"Sometimes the smallest things take the most room in your heart."
" 'How do you spell love?'
'You don't spell it, you feel it.' "
"Nobody can be uncheered with a balloon."
"A day spent with you is my favourite day. So today is my new favourite day."
"Piglet noticed that although he had a very small heart, it could hold a rather large amount of gratitude."
“'I don’t feel very much like Pooh today,' said Pooh.
"'There there,' said Piglet. 'I’ll bring you tea and honey until you do.'”
"If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you."
