A Meaningful Quote About Hope

I ran across this quote and wanted to share it. Unfortunately, I don't know to whom to give the credit, as the author is listed as "anonymous."

"Hope works in these ways: it looks for the good in people instead of harping on the worst; it discovers what can be done instead of grumbling about what cannot; it regards problems, large or small, as opportunities; it pushes ahead when it would be easy to quit; it "lights the candle" instead of "cursing the darkness."

That also reminds me of a quote by Winston Churchill: "A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty."

Remember, we CHOOSE our thoughts, which determine our feelings! Our feelings then determine our actions, which determine our results! THEREFORE, it is VERY IMPORTANT that we CHOOSE to think GOOD thoughts! I challenge you to BEGIN TODAY to CHOOSE TO THINK ONLY GOOD THOUGHTS!

"Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things." Phip 4:8
