SIGNS

The office, the shared hallway, the shared kitchen and the downstairs entrance have a number of pictures (mostly lighthouses of course) hanging on the walls and some of them have sayings or sign. The landlord was shocked at the number of pictures in the shared areas and I had to get permission of our neighbor on the second floor to hang them.

The following are on some of the pictures:

BELIEF:  THE FUTURE BELONGS TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN THE BEAUTY OF THEIR DREAMS

One of life’s greatest rules…….You cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening your own

YOUR MOVE

LIFE IS A GAME, PLAY IT;

LIFE IS A CHALLENGE, MEET IT;

LIFE IS AN OPPORTUNITY, CAPTURE IT.

Light tomorrow with today:  Elizabeth Barrett Browning

ATTITUDE:  Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows, Helen Keller

Advance confidently in the direction of your dreams,  HD Thoreau

FAITH

With a guiding light all obstacles can be overcome

PERSEVERANCE

…Never give up, for that is the place and the time that the tide will turn

VISION

The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them

GOALS

IF A MAN KNOWS NOT WHAT HARBOR HE SEEKS, NO LIGHT WILL BE ENOUGH TO GUIDE HIM

The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night,  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

One of the definitions of sign is “something material or external that stands for or signifies something spiritual”.  I agree.
