Here are some other inspiring quotes you might like.
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. #<Author:0x000055c61259b798>
SHARING

HELPING OTHERS
Do it again. Play it again. Sing it again. Read it again. Write it again. Sketch it again. Rehearse it again. Run it again. Try it again. Because again is practice, and practice is improvement. #<Author:0x000055c61274b048>
PRACTICE
Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before. #<Author:0x000055c61267df30>

FAMILY
Laughter is proof of hope. #<Author:0x000055c6128c7cf0>
LAUGHTER
When I say it's you I like, I'm talking about that part of you that knows that life is far more than anything you can ever see or hear or touch. That deep part of you that allows you to stand for those things without which humankind cannot survive. Love that conquers hate, peace that rises triumphant over war, and justice that proves more powerful than greed. #<Author:0x000055c610d1a020>
PEACE

HOPE
