Quotes tend to inspire and motivate.
They are popular on all the social media platforms and tend to be shared more if they host an image.
I've assembled some of the ones that I made up from a combination of wonderful imagery, art or photography to pay tribute and give justice to such innovative wording.
I hope you like some or all of them. They have been attributed to whom said the words .... and a few times, the images inspired me to create my own.
"There are always flowers for those who want to see them."
~ Henri Matisse
Flowers start to bloom in each spring regardless of the winter past. They don't curl their leaves from disappointment, fatigue, stress or discouragement. Flowers are eternally optimistic.
As the sun shines on them, they blossom with optimism to brighten our lives, give pollen for our bees, who work hard on our crops, so that we can harvest the food to eat among our assembled friends and family.
"The earth laughs in flowers."
~Ralph Aldo Emerson
How can we not be more hopeful when we see a flower? How can we not feel love when given to us by loved ones on occasions? We should feel inspired by flowers' optimism that even as the cool winter air befalls them and they curl and become hidden ... spring will renew it once again to bloom and bring beauty, love to our world.
Flowers show us that even should we crumple and hide, whither with disappointment, feel pain, battle depression .... Spring allows us to bloom with new life and beauty to share with others.
Do not be shadowed by rain showers in spring ... be rejuvenated and happy to know that the sprinkles are washing away what was before, to bring new life, new optimism, new flowers.
"Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when all the flowers are dead."
~Oscar Wilde
Being attracted to beautiful imagery inspires me and reminds me that creativity doesn't always have to be by one's own hand, recognizing another's talent is rewarding and rejuvenates ones eyes Esmat Morshedy provided the image above and below which I loved because of the quality and it is also my favorite color: purple I hope others are as thankful as I am to be able to share in the joy you find in your passion whether it is art, photography or writing.
