This quote makes me sad-happy because it says what needs to be said so beautifully. This is what I tell my grandsons every chance I get. I think it makes them feel better as it breaks my heart. Life is not always easy and I so wish I could be there to shelter them through life’s obstacles. They are learning to stand on their own more each day which I realize is the ultimate goal.
How does this quote make you feel? Do you understand or relate to my sad-happy state of mind?
Thoughtful Thursdays
As part of my 2018 goal to Spread Joy, I am sharing quotes, poetry, photos and sometimes just my thoughts on Thursdays — Thoughtful Thursdays. My hope is that these posts will help me (and maybe others) focus on the joys of life.
Thoughtful Thursday Link Up
I’d love to have others join me. It’d be wonderful to have a full-page of great quotes, poetry and photos to share. Simply email me at rainydayreflections2015@gmail.com your positive or thoughtful quote, photo or poetry along with your post link by 2:00 PM CST each Wednesday. We are working on spreading joy; so please stay positive. I’ll combine everything and post on Thursday afternoon. (You do not have to be a Word Press blogger or write a post to participate; but I will post your link if you choose to write a post.)
Rainy Day Reflections 
I am going to keep this quote in my folder of meaningful quotes. It may come in handy one day. It creates this mysterious feeling wedged between happiness and sadness.
