I've been looking up inspiring quotes and putting them in a journal which I find helps to read over when the meno symptoms get me down. Here is one I really like -

"It's funny how, when things seem the darkest, moments of beauty present themselves in the most unexpected places." - Karen Moring

Wondering if anyone else has any positive quotes they'd like to share in this thread?

Not yet but it's a good idea

Here's another quote I like when worrying about possible anxiety during the day from hormone related meno -

"The human capacity for burden is like bamboo- far more flexible than you'd ever believe at first glance."- Jodi Picoult.

[Salad]

One of my favourites is

‘Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass... It's about learning how to dance in the rain'

 

[LuLu71]

Excellent quote Salad! That quote makes one stop and rethink how to frame life's up and downs.

"One day everything will make sense, until then, keep going"

This was sent to me by a good friend x

[LuLu71]

Very nice quote...yes, in the end that is all one can do and hope for the best, it will hopefully all make sense in the end...

It reminds me of this quote -

"Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding." - Kahlil Gibran

[Sparrow]

A wise man is known by the fewness of his words.

"When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us." - Helen Keller

[LuLu71]

Fitting for D-Day...

"When you are going through hell, keep going." - Winston Churchill

"When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on." - Franklin D. Roosevelt

A kind gesture can reach a wound, that only compassion can heal x

[LuLu71]

Nice one Countrygirl 

Here is an interesting quote directly about menopause-

 "A woman must wait for her ovaries to die before she can get her rightful personality back. Post-menstrual is the same as pre-menstrual; I am once again what I was before the age of twelve: a female human being who knows that a month has thirty day, not twenty-five, and who can spend every one of them free of the shackles of that defect of body and mind known as femininity." — Florence King

Any thoughts about this one?
