Great picture of hibiscus, my friend
Thank you Lado, a favorite.
One of my favorite quotes that helps me through the day sometimes.

It makes me happy to share that with people!
That is so very true Doc. I never believe most of what I read.
it is my favorite quote, it guarantees people stop and listen!
One can be happy when that one decided to be happy. ~The Pesky Pixie ?♀️

Love that, I thought I wrote that one.
I can certainly relate to it
The one quote I have always loved the best is Per aspera ad astra a popular Latin phrase meaning “through hardships to the stars”.
To me, it has always meant that we must face our daily challenges and do our very best to achieve our goals and make our lives better
Very inspiring my friend, thank you!
I agree happiness depends upon ourself but my prefer quote from these three quotes is “Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. It means that you’ve decided to look beyond the imperfections. “~Gerard Way 🙂
That is a good one, thanks for sharing.
And nothing is ever perfect, right!
Wonderful quotes. I don’t know which one to choose, which is a few quotes that I really like.
I have many favorites as well.
I have a journal full of quotes that get me through life.

Happiness is a state of mind. The mind can stay happy irrespective of the circumstances. Well said Carol.
Yes and it takes a lot of work some days. Thank you.
True. Not everyday is a Sunday.
I wish that were the case on so many occasions.
