Grow through what you go through Everything that we go through even the times that feel absolutely awful all teach us something even if we don't fully appreciate it or realize at the time. We grow stronger even through the hard times.
Be the change you wish to see in this world. I first found this quote when I was going vegetarian. I didn't want to see animals suffering and despite that fact I am just one person, I decided to be the change I wish to see in the world and stop eating meat. This applies to far more than just vegetarianism of course, it can be applied to everything. Nothing changes unless we do. 
Life is Like A Camera - Focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives and if things don't work out take another shot.
One of my favorite quotes, mostly because I love photography so much, but isn't it also so true? And a great way of looking at things for day to day life.
Autumn shows us just how beautiful it is to let things go.One that is very fitting for this time of year, but also one that I love. Autumn is one of, if not the most, prettiest seasons as the trees let go of their leaves and when we relate that back to our own lives, we realize that it is true for us too in that there really is beauty in letting go of things. Especially things like arguments and the things that we cannot control.
Keep you face towards the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind you.I love this quote a lot - to me it's about keeping positive people, things and thoughts around you. It's not about pretending that the negatives (or the shadows) aren't there, it's about letting those things fall behind you like shadows and allowing yourself to try and find the positive in everything.
So there you have it - some of my personal favorite powerful quotes that I try to live by. I'd love to know what some of yours are?
Thank you for reading. Alex xo
