[QUOTE="barneysmom, post: 369421, member: 1872"] Farmwife and all, Farmwife, you were probably doing the best you could at any given moment. I think you will agree with me when you look back on all those incidents in your life. I recently reached a low point. I have always been a warrior mom but had found myself completely out of courage. Bone dry. Cringing in fear every five minutes. I looked up some quotes about courage on the internet that made me feel better. They did (after a while). Courage can't see around the corners, but goes around them anyway. (Mignon McLaughlin) Courage is fear holding on a minute longer. (George S. Patton) Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm. (Winston Churchill) Courage is being scared to death . . . and saddling up anyway. (John Wayne) Courage is when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. Atticus Finch, "To Kill A Mockingbird." I LOVE YOU ATTICUS, YOU ARE MY HERO, AND YOU ARE HOT HOT HOT. (Barneysmom) Courage is a word that was created to replace the phrase "F --- it, it's got to be done." (Chae Richardson) I listen to music that makes me feel like my true self and not anybody's mom. Jackson Browne has seen me through my latest travails. Also James Taylor and The Beatles. What songs do you like Farmwife? I watch the Lord of the Rings Trilogy when I need a shot of courage and humanity. Today our librarian, whom I've known for many years, told me when she needs comfort she re-reads Lonesome Dove or The Once and Future King. I thought those were good suggestions. All this stuff helps with numbness too. Take care, HTH some, tell us your suggestions. [/QUOTE]
