Words of Encouragement for Xmas Gift

JoShan1719

For Christmas this year I'm giving someone an Encourage-Mint jar, and I need help with encouraging quotes or stories. Any help would be very appreciated!

Can you explain this idea a little more to me?  Sounds cool!   And are you looking for any specific type of encouraging quotes?  Overcoming something? Happiness? Something else?

I know it's cheesy, but I enjoy the "hang in there, baby!" kitty that's hanging onto a clothesline. it's so ridiculous that it makes me laugh and puts me in a good mood.

are you tying it into the mint idea at all? like wrapping your quotes around Andes mints or something?

I found the idea online and thought it was really cute. You fill a jar with mints that have encouraging sayings wrapped around them. Any type of quotes work, since I figure we encounter different situations throughout the year anyway. Thanks for the quotes so far, keep them coming!
