I've been having a rough day today, and I received an email just a few minutes ago that really brought me down. There's this one friend I have at my school, and she always knows how to lift me up no matter the depth of my doubt. I texted her telling what the email said, and she knew exactly how to comfort me. First she spoke in her own words, then she actually looked up a quote to make me feel better. It goes:
"If you feel lost, disappointed, hesitant, or weak, return to yourself, to who you are, here and now and when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong." By Masaru Emoto.
The power of words is astounding. I've rediscovered that this evening.
Thank you, dear friend. You know who you are.
