You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover is yourself.
Alan Alda
Never mind searching for who you are. Search for the person you aspire to be.

I’m just about a week late! I like these quotes — very inspirational. I think self-discovery (on purpose, or by accident) is an important part of dealing with chronic illness/chronic pain. Self-discovery can illuminate the past, present and future.

Since I had a problem with Yahoo mail (ads appeared in my version of my blog when I clicked on links back to it, I’ve “unlogged” out of all sites.
So, I always forget I have to sign into my blog on wordpress before I can leave a comment.
So, of course, I’ve now forgotten alot of what I had to say about your quotes and self discovery, lol. It only takes an instant! And because I’m not staying logged in, I keep forgetting passwords (and/or forgetting where I wrote them down — if I remembered to do so!).
I do know I said something along the lines that self-discovery can illuminate the past, present, and future.
As usual, I love the quotes — they are always inspirational and often just what I need at the point in time!
Thanks for sharing!

You are not alone in the instant forgetting club. I have a book to write my passwords in and would be lost if I didn’t have it.
Thanks for dropping by and am glad you enjoy the quotes.
