Little Victories

There is no use trying, said Alice; one can’t believe impossible things. I dare say you haven’t had much practice, said the Queen. When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.

Lewis Carroll (via ramblingdreams) (via quote-book) (via ashadeofgrey)

Everybody has difficult years, but a lot of times the difficult years end up being the greatest years of your whole entire life, if you survive them.

Brittany Murphy (via kari-shma) (via quote-book)

Be not afraid, you were born for this.

Joan of Arc (via chaotique)

Be clearly aware of the stars and infinity on high. Then life seems almost enchanted after all.

Vincent Van Gogh (via gatekeeper) (via lajoiedevivre)

Self-acceptance comes from meeting life’s challenges vigorously. Don’t numb yourself to your trials and difficulties, nor build mental walls to exclude pain from your life. You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems, but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial, but in victory.

J. Donald Walters (via brokenmachine) (via chaotique)
