15+ Quotes to Beat Depression

Healing, Inspiration, Mental Health, Mind, Spirit

Lately, I have been battling depression more than usual. I know it is partly due to the extraordinary circumstances I am in right now, but it is also due to all those years of not facing my own issues. For many people who suffer from depression, the situation is usually the same.

Beating depression is not an easy thing. On good days, you get up and have hope that things will get better. On bad days, you feel like it’s a constant uphill climb.

Coming from one who is in the same boat as you may be, here are some quotes to beat depression. I’m not saying they’re going to beat depression forever. They may even sound trite (everything seems trite when you’re in a rut), or they may seem useless. Trust me on this: keep reading and reading and reading.

You’ll get out of that rut, and you’ll find that strength inside you. They may just be quotes, but words have a powerful effect if you imbibe them and believe that there is always hope, even if it doesn’t seem like it at the moment.

11 Quotes to Help You With Trust Issues

Inspiration

Trust.

Such a “little” word, but oh, its immensity!

For some people, trusting comes easy. For others, it’s the hardest thing to do – especially if they have had their trust broken big time in the past. (Then again, who hasn’t had his trust broken at one point or another?)

If you’re at a point in life when trust is an issue that you cannot ignore, here are some quotes that can help you.

  1. “All the world is made of faith, and trust, and pixie dust.” ~ J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
  2. “The best way to find out if you can trust somebody is to trust them.”  ~Ernest Hemingway
  3. “Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.” ~Corrie ten Boom
  4. “Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.” ~Maya Angelou
  5. “None of us knows what might happen even the next minute, yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have Faith.” ~Paulo Coelho, Brida
  6. “We are all mistaken sometimes; sometimes we do wrong things, things that have bad consequences. But it does not mean we are evil, or that we cannot be trusted ever afterward.” ~Alison Croggon
  7. “Everyone suffers at least one bad betrayal in their lifetime. It’s what unites us. The trick is not to let it destroy your trust in others when that happens. Don’t let them take that from you.” ~Sherrilyn Kenyon, Invincible
  8. “A man who trusts nobody is apt to be the kind of man nobody trusts.” ~Harold MacMillan
  9. “Do not lose hope — what you seek will be found. Trust ghosts. Trust those that you have helped to help you in their turn. Trust dreams. Trust your heart, and trust your story. (from ‘Instructions’)” ~Neil Gaiman, Fragile Things: short fictions and wonders
  10. “The inability to open up to hope is what blocks trust, and blocked trust is the reason for blighted dreams.” ~Elizabeth Gilbert
  11. “Trust, but verify.” ~Ronald Reagan

11 Quotes for Tough Times in Your Relationship

Being in a relationship is a wonderful thing, as we were made to be social. Even the most introverted person yearns for a connection, only the intensity and frequency varies. As Margaret Mead said, “Having someone wonder where you are when you don’t come home at night is a very old human need.”

There is, however, the universally known fact that relationships can be a strain at times. Even the best matched couples in the world can go through rough patches.

Perhaps one of the trickiest things to decide on is whether a couple is going through a rough patch or it really is the end of the road for them. [Read more…] about 11 Quotes for Tough Times in Your Relationship
