Quote #120: Michelle Bahr

Hi, I'm Michelle Bahr, a community volunteer and member of the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition. A quote that resonates with me these days is by one of my favorites, Maya Angelou. This quote reminds me that even when things feel dark, it is always a choice to be kind and lighten your own burden (and hopefully the burden of others).

"My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness. Continue to allow humor to lighten the burden of your tender heart." - Maya Angelou

This quote supports my wellbeing as a reminder that no matter what type of day you are having, kindness and humor and a tender heart can change the world and turn a frown into a smile.

So, the next time you are feeling down in the dumps, remember that my wish for you is "to continue."
