One of my favorite things to post on my blog are my Friday photos and quotes. I've always been fond of inspirational quotes, and when I discovered that I could pair them with a pretty photo and fill up my blogging calendar at least one day a week it was the perfect fit for me.
I know that the quotes I choose don't always resonate with every one of my readers every single week. It would be silly to even try for that. My quotes are chosen based on where I am and what I might be dealing with at the time. The quotes I share are usually personal reminders for myself, but sometimes it's not that deep and I just let the photo guide me. For instance, if a photo evokes feelings of playfulness I might steer my quote in that direction.
But you know the really cool thing about Just a Quote for Friday? The best part for me? It's when someone leaves a comment and says, "I needed this one today!" or "This quote is for ME today!" :o) I love when that happens! I love it because it means that no matter where I am in my journey, no matter what I'm challenged with or trying to focus on, there's someone else out there who can relate.
And when that happens, my "Just a Quote for Friday" becomes not just a quote for that day. It becomes a sweet and simple connection that reminds me I am not alone.
And that's always a really nice feeling.

I SO agree with this Deb. I think quotes have that way of putting in to words what we can't express ourselves . It still amazes me in blogging how sharing one thing, one experience, on photo, one quote can create such a shared connection.
Also, cracking verse you chose for today.
No, you're not alone. I love to look out for your Friday post and I'm always interested to see what direction it's going to go in every week and what it's going to have me think about
I love this weekly series of yours ... there's usually something that speaks directly to me. And I always love to see your garden as viewed from under the umbrella.
I always enjoy your Friday post. If the quote doesn't speak to me in some way, which is rare, then I have your lovely photo to admire.
love your quotes and the photos that go with them.... love your words! xxx
I also love your just a quote for Friday posts. They sometimes make me think about where I'm at in life and things I should be doing a bit different. I hope all is well with you.
So very true, Deb. I love reading your posts on a Friday and there have been a few times when I've felt like they could be for me!
I love your Friday posts to see which quote is going up. If it doesn't speak to me that week, I know that another week it will, but even if it doesn't speak to me, it makes me think, which is a good thing too!
