Quotes by Eleanor Brownn

The only thing on Earth you can count on is that there is nothing on Earth you can count on.

You’ve climbed too many mountains and crossed too many rivers to stop and turn back now.

Always count your blessings, even if you have to count them through your tears

Walk gently, and be brave.

There were moments when it hurt so bad you couldn’t breathe, yet somehow you survived the pain.

Self care is any action you purposefully take to improve your physical, emotional or spiritual well being. Too often, we do not make time for sufficient self care because we’re too busy taking care of others. Life’s demands at home, in our community and at work can take our lives out of balance. Self care can be getting more rest, eating healthier food, spending more time in thoughtful reflection, being kinder to yourself, smiling more, playing, or engaging in any activity that renews you. By making time for self care, you prepare yourself to be your best so you can share your gifts with the world. You cannot serve from an empty vessel. © 2017 Eleanor Brownn eleanorbrownn.com

Start from your heart. The greatest journeys begin on the inside.

Negativity is positively bad for your health.

An old person knows what it’s like to be young, but a young person doesn’t know what it’s like to be old. There’s no substitute for life experience.
