Words to Live By
These poignant, powerful words thought to have originated from Meryl Streep when it made its way round the internet last year, has, once again emerged on my newsfeed. Sources have quoted that these words were originally penned by a Portuguese life coach/self-help guru by the name of José Micard Teixeira and has nothing to do with Meryl Streep who probably happened to agree with the sentiments of this quote.
Regardless who has the rightful claim to it, I thought that these words were beautifully penned. Empowering words…a permission to yourself to make the choices you rightfully deserve.
Words to live by, indeed.
I saw this somewhere last year and put it by my mirror. Love it!
Pretty nice, right! Such powerful, empowering words – lifts you up when you feel a little “meh”. *hugs*
I soooo love these words so much I also posted it on my birthday. Although Meryl Streep may live by these words, these are not originally hers. I forgot the author’s name though.
Hello Lux! 🙂 Sources pointed out that this was originally penned by a Portuguese life coach/self-help guru by the name of José Micard Teixeira. It’s truly an inspiring piece. Streep just happened to get the credit it seems! Hope you are having a wonderful day. 😀
The name of the author is José Micard Teixeira 😉 !!
Thank you for your kind words !!
Who but the author himself! What a wonderful visit! 😀 Thank you José. Yes, I re-checked again to make sure I got the name right and was ready to change it! 🙂 Your words are very beautifully put together, indeed. Have a wonderful, wonderful day!
