I know we are approaching Thanksgiving,when we'll all be thinking about the things we are most thankful for, but this week I want to put a spin on it.
The challenge this week is:
Describe something "negative" that has happened this year that you are thankful for?. Yes, I know that sounds ludicrous, but you know sometimes the things we think are the most difficult, most dreaded parts of our lives are the things that make us the strongest.
Here are some quotations I found that will maybe inspire you!
God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons we could not learn in any other way. The way we learn those lessons is not to deny the feelings but to find the meanings underlying them.”
Stanley Lindquist
We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.”
Lloyd Alexander
Learning is not child's play; we cannot learn without pain”
Aristotle quotes
If you learn from defeat, you haven't really lost.
Zig Ziglar
Success, or failure, very often arrives on wings that seem mysterious to us."
-- Dr. Marcus Bach
Sometimes adversity is what you need to face in order to become successful.”
Zig Ziglar
