How Reading Inspiring Words Help Us Navigate Our Daily Live

My daughter-in-law Amy and I purchased coffee from a Honolulu coffee shop during our vacation there a couple of years ago. She noticed the quotes on the back of the sugar packets, so we stood there and read them while waiting on my coffee. Three of my favorite sugar packet quotes are:

“Strength is not the absence of weakness but how we wrestle with our weaknesses.”

“Success is when we turn our stumbling blocks into building blocks.”

“Time is an orchard; every moment is ripe with opportunity.”

These inspiring thoughts were written by poet-philosopher Noah benShea for rough patches and opportunities most all of us surely experience on our life journey, throughout our country, especially now while living through COVID19, political and human unrest, wild fires, flooding, and hurricanes, etc. Read more uplifting and motivating words from Noah benShea’s Ten Truths to Get You Through Tough Times.
