I've had a challenging last week and when I reflect I do so a lot on my upbringing and how my dads life was full of quotes , phrases and wee one liners .. so do you have A quote , pharse or statement that you always stand by or stands by you in life for almost all situations .

If you were to use a phrase today about how you feel or which sums you up what would it be ? Needing a wee bit of inspiration today lol

I have 3 I use often . Mines are

" I say what I mean and I mean what i say"

"For every action , there is a reaction"

"I am powerless over other people and places"

Hi with regards to the sayings i would have to plump for;

"What goes around comes around"

Have seen that happen to a few people recently, does that help.

An onion ring took my breath away once...and turned me a lovely shade of red!

I pray that never happens again!!!

My granny used to say "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, It, it's the size of the fight in the dog that matters".

That taught me to stand up for myself.

My dad used to say "What's for you will no' go by you". Good or bad, you'll get what you deserve.

Live every day like it's your last. Only regret not doing something. Life is to short to think 'if only'...

Into every life a little rain must fall.

If everybody put their troubles in a corner,

most would be only too happy to pick their own back out.

Only sweat the big things,

and nothing's a big thing.

"My dad says "If you cant say anything nice about someone dont say anything at all"

My mums was "Suffice until the day""

and "This time will pass"

The only one I can think I use is

"If you wanna know anything about me just ask? If you wanna know know the good stuff ask my friends and if you want the thruth ask my enimies."
