One of my biggest inspirations in life is Taylor Swift. I think a lot of people can agree on that, as she has not only influenced us through her music, but also through her words. She's not afraid to stand up for herself and be herself. She teaches young women to love themselves and not be ashamed of who they are. Whether or not you like her music, there's no denying that she speaks some powerful words and is a good influence on her fans. Here are some inspiring quotes, told by Taylor Swift, that can help you get through your rough days:
1. “I think loving someone, despite what people think, is fearless.”
2. “No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Because being nice is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.”
3. “Giving up doesn’t always mean you’re weak, sometimes you’re just strong enough to let go.”
4. “Just be yourself, there is no one better.”
5. “Keeping your emotions all locked up is something that’s unfair to you. When you clearly know how you feel, you should say it."
6. “When you hear people making hateful comments, stand up to them. Point out what a waste it is to hate, and you could open their eyes.”
7. “The thing about life is, every time you learn a lesson, another is waiting right at the corner. You never know everything.”
8. “I think fearless is having fears but jumping anyway.”
9. “You have people come into your life shockingly and surprisingly. You have losses that you never thought you’d experience. You have rejection, and you have to learn how to deal with that and how to get up the next day and go on with it.”
10. "I've found time can heal most anything and you just might find who you're supposed to be."
11. “Real life is a funny thing, you know. In real life, saying the right thing at the right moment is beyond crucial. So crucial, in fact, that most of us start to hesitate, for fear of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. But lately what I've begun to fear more than that is letting the moment pass without saying anything."
12. "There are two ways you can go with pain: You can let it destroy you or you can use it as fuel to drive you ..."
13. “Never believe anyone who tells you that you don't deserve what you want.”
Thank you, Taylor Swift. And although there are plenty more inspirational quotes from you, I will leave it at 13, your lucky number.
