quotes to uplift you
- by Andreea Prodan
- in LIFESTYLE, PERSONAL GROWTH

The word is pure magic. If I say the word ‘tree’ a visual imagine of it appeared in your mind; but I can say the word “Godfather” and then you think of a movie masterpiece. With the faith we put in words we create our stories and thus our reality. Words have the power to uplift us, give us a new perspective, brainstorm or release what is on our mind, and also give us empathy and compassion because the word allows us to see the world through someone else’s eyes. I hope these quotes will uplift you or help you reflect.
“My story isn’t pleasant, it’s not sweet and harmonious like the invented stories; it tastes of folly and bewilderment, of madness and dream, like the life of all people who no longer want to lie to themselves.”

—Hermann Hesse

We can judge our progress by the courage of our questions and the depth of our answers, our willingness to embrace what is true rather than what feels good.
