11 Quotes That Will Inspire You To Be Strong In Life's Struggles
SELF

Everyone has their own struggles in life and we should not compare one to the other. We never know what others are truly going through and we should not judge them because of their struggles. What we should be doing is inspiring others to get past these hard times, not adding more to them.

1. Never give up.


"The struggle you're in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow. Don't give up."

—Robert Tew

2. Your wisdom can carry you.

"I am strong because I've been weak. I am fearless because I've been afraid. I am wise because I've been foolish."

—Anonymous

3. Live your life.

"You were given this life because you are strong enough to live it."

—Unknown

4. Your destiny awaits.

"Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny..."

—C.S. Lewis

5. Never stop fighting.

"The strongest people are not those who show strength in front of us, but those who win battles we know nothing about."

—Unknown

6. Everyone makes mistakes.

"Your mistakes don't define you."

7. We need struggles so that we can grow.

"Where there is no struggle, there is no strength."

—Oprah Winfrey

8. Keep your head up.

"Keep your head up. Keep fighting. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel and your struggles only make you better in the end."

—Anonymous

9. Challenges are there to inspire you.

"When you face difficult times, know that challenges are not sent to destroy you. They're sent to promote, increase, and strengthen you."

—Kemmy Nola

10. Be strong even when it's OK to fall.


"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do, but to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength."

—Unknown

11. You are not your struggle.

"Don't let your struggle become your identity."

—Ralston Bowles

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf.

Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life.
