I began publishing Encouraging Words 3 daily on April 1, 2020. I had a simple goal. One quote. One image. One prayer that it gave some reassurance and courage to those who needed it. Now 40 days later, I realize it has become much more. While researching the quotes, I mentally and emotionally immersed myself in the wisdom and inspiration of some of the greatest minds of all time. While I was researching and editing my photos, I was reliving some of the most wondrous places I had ever been. And as a result, even though the daily news was extremely negative, I was able to cope with it more effectively because of all the truly positive things I had chosen to dwell on. Then there was all the kindness and thoughtfulness on social media. Many people generously commented how they were being blessed by the daily posts. Some of those same people shared the posts an estimated 500 times with others who needed a lift. One magazine publisher used a post on the front cover in order to elevate others. And because everyone worked together, more people got exposed to the uplifting messages than I could have ever dreamed possible. So I want to conclude this ebook by thanking everyone for everything you did to make this project so rewarding and meaningful. I hope it blessed your life in the process.
