| A Sheltered Place |
| Everyone needs a tranquil, healing sanctuary, shelter from the storms of a troubled world. -- Marian Reish |
| I have faced great storms - and faced them bravely - but sometimes I need to cast anchor in a sheltered place where no storms come; alone, with thoughts of the storms I've weathered and the ones yet to come. -- Gerald McLaughlin |

| We sometimes find that the storms of life have driven us, not upon the rocks we feared, but into the haven we were seeking all along. -- George MacDonald |

| Our lives would lose much of their meaning and most of their joy if there were no storms to weather or obstacles to overcome. The world is full of suffering; it is also full of surviving and overcoming. -- Helen Keller |
|
| The importance of a personal sanctuary cannot be overstated - someplace away from the swing of the sea - where we perform the duty of taking care of our souls. -- Christopher McDowell |

| Let us not only pray to find shelter from the storm, but also to find courage when facing it. -- Rabindranath Tagore ~ ~ ~ Courage is not the towering oak that sees storms come and go; it's the fragile blossom that opens in the snow. -- Alice Swaim |

| It could be argued that the storms you encountered aren't nearly as important as whether or not you brought in the boat. -- Raul Armesto ~ ~ ~ Shelter yourself as best you can, but don't overlook the seeds of benefit that each storm inevitably carries with it. -- Napoleon Hill |

| The best shelter is inner peace. The greatest obstacles to inner peace are disturbing emotions such as anger, fear and suspicion, while love, compassion and a sense of universal responsibility are the best paths to peace and happiness. -- Dalai Lama |
