Inspiration Quotes for the Chronically Ill

Are you tired of reading inspiration quotes and finding that they’re all written for able bodied people who can go out and change the world? Maybe you suffer from chronic illness, fatigue, and/or pain and you have had to put your big dreams on the back burner. Look no further. This is a compilation of quotes that are geared towards those who move at their bodies pace. We are no less capable than our able bodied friends. We just work at a different speed and towards different goals.

I will be adding new quotes every week for Wisdom Wednesdays. If you like to what you see here follow my Chronic Illness Quotes Pinterest board. I will be posting them there as well as my Instagram.
