Happy Monday everyone! Today got off to a flying start and I was out the door bright and early for a sexy date. The date was me, my books, and the library. It was a rocking good time.
My and the books have become pretty close lately, and I can see the relationship only getting more intense in the weeks to come. But it’s all good. I like books, and words, and learning!
If you’ve been a reader of this lovely blog for a while, you are probably aware that I’m a lover of good grammar, and adore alliteration. Put simply I like words. Maybe it runs in the family (my mom is completing her master’s in linguistics and my dad is finishing his novel as we speak). I also find quotes and sayings particularly motivating. I remember during the initial stages of my recovery, my mom would write notes and quotes on my mirror. Just seeing those was enough to put a smile on my face and keep me moving forward.
Mom’s are the best!
So for today’s motivational monday I’d like to share some of my favourite words, sayings, and quotes. They are short and simple but are sure to make you smile! Feel free to pin as many as you like!
And my personal favourite…
Here’s to a great week ahead!

No problem…the weather has been all crazy here too! The weekend was all gloom and doom then the sun decides to shine today when I have to be indoors. Typical
great post…and nice pic’s and motivational monday blog…
LOVE these pics– especially the advice from a tree one
Thanks for the great post to start off the day right!
That is one of my favourites
Love all of these! Have a great week!!
Thanks, you too Gillian
Very nice post! I love that your mom did that for you.
Mom’s are the best aren’t they?
Love all of these! Have a fabulous week!
Hope your week is grand as well
Great quotes Sarah! Have a great week!
You too Shira…here’s to more smiles and less grumbles
totally pinned the picture about you can’t buy happiness but you can buy ice cream
So true haha
Ice cream is my weakness!..what’s your fav flavour?
“Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love.”–Rilke
That ice cream one is pretty great too!
That is a great quote…love it. Thanks for sharing
I am addicted to quotes! Love them
I can’t pick a favourite! BTW – what did your mum use to write on the mirror? I would love to do this for my family 
She would right all kinds of things! I think the mirror in the photo reads ‘Good Morning Sunshine!’, ‘Confidence is everything’ and ‘One joy scatters a hundred griefs’. But I would come home after a long day teaching and she would have written different ones. She’s fabulous like that…you should totally do it for your family!!! Let me know what you write (P.S. I got the markers from an office supply store – they are specific ones for writing on windows and mirrors)
thanks – it was the markers I was after! don’t want to ruin my lovely bathroom mirror !!
check out my blog this week – awards for you!
