Sorry for the delay posting the first four chapters of Into The Fire. We sold our NC house, which means we must find a new house to live in, so house hunting is what had me busy last week. I’ll post the chapters next week. This week… well, I’m still reeling from the election results. I did, however, want to share some quotes that are helping me. I hope they help some of you, too.
“We may encounter defeats, but we must not be defeated.” – Maya Angelou.
“Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all’ – Emily Dickinson
“It is better to light a candle than curse the darkness.” – Eleanor Roosevelt.
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” – Martin Luther King, Jr.
Note: Do NOT post any political comments below. I’m not kidding. Right now, I want to spread some much-needed hope, not more vitriol. If you ignore my request, I will delete your comment (my page, my rules.) If, however, you want to share another inspirational quote or quotes, please do.

Hi Jeaniene,
I wanted to say thank you and I share your sentiment. I think right now we need to have hope. May I share?
“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness” – Desmond Tutu
“Let your hopes, not your hurts, shape your future.” – Robert H. Schuller
“Hope is a waking dream.” – Aristotle
Peace, my friend.

Ciao, Silvia ( from Italy ).

H.O.P.E hold on, pain ends. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. Life isn’t waiting for the storm to pass, it’s learning to dance in the rain. My thoughts are with you, America.
