Quote of the Moment

As I shared before, I love quotes. They inspire me a lot. Soemtimes after finding one I like a lot I end up writing a poem because the wrods keep me moving. Today I thought I'd share this one:

"No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings" - William Blake

I really like this quote for  a number of reasons. When I interpret it I think of the way you aren't supposed to always rely on yourself to get far in life. You need people to assit you. The same goes with Gather. You can't do to much if people don't read what you say and share the love.

What do you guys think?

I agree. You have to depend on yourself, but also accept help from other people.

Remember " No man is an island." by John Donne.

I am 100 percent behind believing in yourself. Its just that in this quote to me it shows that you can't be superman or superwomen and do it all on your without any kind of assistance. You can easily get help from through motivation but not conventional assistance.

Good quote

I too think to get somewhere we need help. But I have been betrayed enough to know to pick wisely those who support you.
