Mirror of Inspiration

I thought i'd take this opportunity to share with all of you my mirror of inspiration. This is my mirror in my bedroom which i have filled with my favourite quotes that fill me with strength, courage and inspire me to continue on this dark road we called 'healing' when i feel like giving up the most. I have enlarged the photo so you should be able to read some of them, however please note all of these quotes are featured in my favourite quotes section on the left hand side of my blog. I actually think this is an excellent tool and i read them every time i look in this mirror. I think it can help someone who is going through any sort of difficult time in their life. Perhaps my mirror of inspiration may inspire you do to the same :)

Please comment and share with us the quotes that inspire you!

This is a lovely way to move beyond those things that bind you and/or take away your self esteem.

Remember this when you are looking into your own eyes in that mirror and say to yourself: "I am loveable. I matter. I make a difference."

Thank you Sharon!

I often find myself unable to look myself in the eyes, or say any of those you said, but i hope to again one day, but for now just reading those quotes really help me!

Thank you
