By definition a quote is: to repeat (a passage, phrase,
etc.) from a book, speech, or the like, as by way of authority, illustration,
etc. and/or to repeat words from (a book, author, etc.).
The internet is full of famous quotes for just about every
situation under the sun. Most quotes are a form of encouragement, they are
supportive or makes one feel good hearing it. Many find strength in hearing a
quote and perhaps find true meaning in hearing a certain phrase. Quotes
sometimes become a person’s personal motto, a mission statement of sorts.
I personally love and
try to live by the ‘Do Something Different’ quote. A lot of people have said
this, I don’t know who said it first, but I have found it to be good advice. I
think about this quote a lot as I go about my life- and when a situation arises
that I’m not happy about –I follow this advice. I have to admit – it’s never
steered me wrong.
But the above quote is not my favorite quote and the one I
most identify with. “I AM.” I AM. Two
simple short words – 3 little letters. And yet SO POWERFUL! (AM capitalized for
emphasis). I AM. Often that is all I
need to feel empowered, strong and happy. Other times I add to it if a
situation taxes me, I AM CALM (kids are being difficult), I AM HAPPY (job is
annoying) or I AM RICH (unexpected big bill!) I AM - it is the easiest quote to
remember, is the most powerful I have ever encountered, perfectly suited for
adapting to any situation and always makes me feel empowered. I AM is my
mission statement. I meditate it, I recite it, I believe it. I AM and that is
ALL.
