Life- 2019 Parkinson’s Awareness Month

“Your life is an occasion. Rise to it.” Suzanne Weyn

“I choose to make the rest of my life the best of my life.” Louise Hay

The word is life: For the remainder of April, as part of Parkinson’s Awareness Month, the theme will showcase inspirational quotes. The goal is to offer you a quote that helps to reinforce your daily approach to life with Parkinson’s. Alternatively, use these quotes to bolster the resolve of your life-Coach/Care Partner. Every life-step with Parkinson’s is a balancing act that is slowly evolving, subtly changing, but it is always present. May these quotes support your daily walk in the presence of Parkinson’s.

Live your life: What you accomplish in your life matters, no matter if it’s a lot or a little; your life-effort makes a difference. It’s you, your life that’s important. “Accept responsibility for your life. Know that it is you who will get you where you want to go, no one else.” Les Brown

Live your life in the presence of Parkinson’s: Your life can be fulfilling and still well-lived amid Parkinson’s. Your disorder will challenge your will-power at times. Do your best to stand your ground because you give life meaning. You and your life are still valued. “Be proud of your scars. They remind you that you have the will to live.” ~Paulo Coelho

From the Journey with Parkinson’s: “Today renew your lease on the rest of your life, enjoy it (get up, get out, get going). Today acknowledge your Parkinson’s; give it a nudge, because you are ready for the battle and for life.” Frank C. Church

I know now, after fifty years, that the finding/losing, forgetting/remembering, leaving/returning, never stops. The whole of life is about another chance, and while we are alive, till the very end, there is always another chance.” Jeanette Winterson
