Welcome to this week’s thought of the week.
This week’s quote is:
“Life is short. Laugh often. Love deeply. Forgive completely.”
This quote speaks to me on so many different levels. Life really is short, and you never know how long yourself and your loved ones will have together.
So laugh together and make memories.
Love with all of your heart.
Forgive people who have wronged you. Holding onto grudges does you more harm than the person who wronged you. Let it go.
It’s probably not even that important in the big scheme of things. Don’t leave it too late to make up, it’s something you may regret.
Well, that was meant to be a positive quote and I still think it is, even if the reasons behind it are a bit depressing.
This Christmas and going into next year, remember to just relax and let go of the negativity, embrace the positive and make your life’s goal to just be happy.
Do you like the quote? Is it something you would like to try? Do you find grudges hard to let go of? Let me know in the comments 🙂

I love this quote but must admit to struggling with the final part. You are right though holding onto grudges is harming and I am trying to let go. Happy Christmas x
Thank you 🙂 It is sometimes easier said than done, but it is worth trying, if only to make yourself feel better! Thank you, Merry Christmas 🙂 x
This is a wonderful quote and one that should be followed! xx
Thank you, I’m glad you liked it! I do try to follow it, it’s not always easy, but it is better than looking for the bad! x
I must admit that I have had a tendency to hold grudges sometimes which has probably led to me being such an introvert. Lately I find them against outside family and have pretty much decided to just focus on my own family I’m making. Great quote Debbie. I hope your new year is full of lots of love and laughter 💌Trista
I tend to just move on, I can’t be bothered to hold grudges, I just cut loose the person (after they’ve had a couple of chances!). Thank you, I hope your is too 🙂 x
I like to think positive and forgive, but some grudges are hard to fully let go of. But I am lucky to be surrounded by wonderful friends and live a positive and happy life. #candidcuddles
Yes, it can be hard, but I think its worth trying to find a way to let go, even if you can’t fully forgive as the anger and resentment do more damage to the one carrying it than the one it is aimed at. That’s good, good friends can really make the difference 🙂
It’s not depressing at all, Debbie. I think this is a very positive quote & a great one looking towards the new year. Thank you for linking up every week! Have a fantastic Christmas & a happy, healthy new year x
I’m glad you found it positive rather than depressing, I would hate to end the year on a depressing note! Thanks for hosting, hope you have a fab Christmas and New Year too 🙂 x
So true! Thanks for the deep thoughts for today.
Thank you, I’m glad you liked it 🙂
