Day 4, Saturday: Favorite quote (from a person, from a book, etc) and why you love it
Oddly enough, my favorite quote is from the TV show Gilmore Girls. I absolutely love that show and watch the re-runs on ABC Family all the time. I'm in awe of Lorelei and Rory's relationship. I would love to have that same type of relationship with a daughter someday. Fingers crossed!
The quote comes from one of the characters, Lane, who is being forced to go to a 7th Day Adventist college. She says:
I'm going to look on the bright side, find the silver lining, and make myself some lemonade.
I think of this phrase all the time and remind myself to make the most of what seems like a bad situation. Like when I mentioned in the post about myself, divorce was bad - but not the worst thing that could have ever happened. When I sat a group of friends down to tell them the divorce news, one girl let out a huge sigh and said "Oh goodness, I thought you were about to tell us you have cancer or something." Exactly - I'm still alive!
I also have a phrase of the day calendar and this was one of the messages:
So very true. Hope has gotten me through some tough times.
