Loving quotes at the moment! If you have a favourite encouraging or inspirational quote that you’d like to see giraffe’d, drop it in the comments and I might give it a whirl :)
Hey Penny, this one really resonated with me, such a wonderful quote. I just wanted to say that recently all the posts you’ve done have seemed so relevant in my life and I’ve found them such a comfort. I have so much love for your little giraffe, I am always so pleased to see a new post in my inbox. Thank you so much. Love Rosie.
It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light. – Aristotle Onassis
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection – The Buddha
Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves. – Henry David Thoreau
“Listen to the Littlest”~ Ruth Reardon Such a great reminder not to be inpatient with little ones. They have so much we can relearn if we do.
I collect giraffe’s and have two great grandchildren whose daddy is a pig farmer.How do I go about ordering a print with two piggies ~ a girl and a boy?
I have your book, which is a wonderful piece of work and one print.
Also I have always loved a quote on a building in Minneapolis, MN,
“Let us all remember the aged….Yes even you are getting old.” I do not know the origination of this quote.
Wonderful as always Penny. One of my favourite quotes is from Albert Schweitzer: “In the hopes of reaching the moon men fail to see the flowers that blossom at their feet.” I’m sure your giraffe would love it being so far from the ground :-)
Hi Penny, your posts are always so inspiring and uplifting. So happy that many of us are touched by your artwork! I always liked this lyric from the singer Jason Mraz, “You can turn off the sun, but I’m still gonna shine” from his song The Remedy (I Won’t Worry).
You make my day “just this much better” each time I read your words.
One of my favorite quotes comes from Marilyn Monroe: “Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”
That is so bittwersweet it makes me gulp. Poor Marilyn and all of those for whom better things didn’t fall back together in time x
Love this quote.

Thanks so much Rosie, that’s really lovely. I hope you have a wonderful day :) Penny.
Well said. :)
I love the quotation, which I had not read before, and I always love your giraffe and his chums.
How about this one: To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
