15 Quotes That Will Change The Way You View The World
Live Bold And Bloom

When we see the world and life, we often make our judgments about it through our own personal experiences and the opinions of others. When we view the world in a negative way, or when we feel like life isn't going our way, we make decisions that affect how we see the world. And then, there's a good chance that they way we view the world becomes the way we view ourselves. Here are 15 quotes that will change your perspective on the world and life.

1.) "Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together." When life isn't on your side or when you feel like the whole world is against you, remember that in order to see the light, we must have darkness.

2.) "Some of the best days of our lives haven't happened yet." We all have bad days, but those bad days don't make a bad life. It's okay to have bad days, just remember that everyday won't be bad.

3.) (One of my favorites), "There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind." -C.S. Lewis. We all make mistakes, but we don't have to let them define us. Don't dwell on past mistakes and failures, they only blind us from seeing what is yet to come.

4.) “Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I’ll try again tomorrow.– Mary Anne Radmacher.


5.) "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." - Maya Angelou. We may not remember the details, but we'll always remember the impact a person had on us.

6.) "A ship is safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for." -William G.T. Shedd. We can be safe and comfortable at home, but the point of life is to experience adventure and live it to the fullest. Be brave and you'll have the time of your life.

7. ) "If you're going through hell, keep going." - Winston Churchill. Keep on going when the going gets tough.

8.) "No one is busy in this world. It's all about priorities.". " The next time you say you're busy, know that it's an excuse. If you truly prioritize something, you will make time for it. Be it relationships, friendships, or something else — you always have time for anything if you make time."

9.) "We judge ourselves by our intentions. And others by their actions." - Stephen A. Covey. Remember that others' intentions may not match their actions.

10.) "I know for sure what we dwell on is who we become." -Oprah Winfrey. A negative mind will always give you a negative life. A positive mind will always give you a positive life.

11.) "For every minute you are angry, you lose 60 seconds of happiness." -Ralph Waldo Emerson. Don't waste your precious time holding grudges, let go and be free.

12.) “What you see and what you hear depends a great deal on where you are standing. It also depends on what sort of person you are.” -C.S. Lewis

13.) “Your perspective on life comes from the cage you were held captive in.” -Shannon L. Alder. Don't base your opinions from the opinions of those who surround you. Live your own adventure and form your own opinion.

14.) “How good something is should never be determined by its cost, designer, origin, or its perceived value by others.” -Ashly Lorenzana. This is pretty self-explanatory.

15.) "Because when you stop and look around, this life is pretty amazing" - Dr. Seuss."

I decided to end these 15 quotes with one of my favorite quotes ever. No, it might not change the way you look at the world, but it definitely opens your eyes to your amazing life.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
