Some Words of Inspiration: #GirlPower Edition

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BU chapter.

Sometimes we all need a little pick me up with some powerful words of wisdom. Us women need to empower each other and spread positivity. Most of us, when we feel lost and confused, reach out to a friend or loved one for advice. A quote is so powerful because it can speak to so many different people in many different ways.

Here are 5 quotes that are a wonderful reminder of the true girl power that exists:  

1.  “Home within myself”

These words by Rupi Kaur remind us to take care of ourselves. We cannot be searching for a home in others. The key to self-love is being one with yourself! Take the time to tend to your own needs and nurture your own home.

2.  “Don’t be beautiful”

Women are much more than beautiful, and this quote is a positive and firm reminder of that. There is so much more substance to each and every one of us. We are each encouraged to be “our own definition of amazing.”

3. “Be that girl”

Some words of motivation are in this quote, reminding us to never back down and always stay persistent. We can all be the girl “who wakes up with purpose and intent.” With determination and focus, it’s all possible and within reach. Be that girl!

4. “Her time”

Don’t suppress your sense of awakening. That sense of ‘can do’ and inspiration is what keeps many of us going. In every way possible, use your sense of awakening to get you places. Let it be what propels you to stay strong and never give up, even on your biggest aspirations.

5. “People will never forget how you made them feel”

Maya Angelou understands the theme of women inspiring women! This quote explains how an open heart can take you places and keep you grounded. It also allows us to connect with one another and change the way people feel. What you do will one day be irrelevant, but your words of a good heart will never be forgotten.

Our society has a loving and empowering community of women that look out for one another; these quotes are representative of the support that we spread to one another. I love to read these powerful and motivational quotes. They are a great reminder that we are not struggling alone and are all in this together. I hope this small, yet powerful, dose of girl power has inspired you all!
