I hope you can help me add uplifting and inspiring quotes here.

Hope is important because it can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear a hardship today.

I just have to have hope, no matter what, that good things await me if I don't give up. Just my thought.

You are not your thoughts. You are not your emotions. You are the soul inhabiting the human body that is having those thoughts and emotions. Breathe that in for a second.

"He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother." - George Orwell's 1984
Not exactly uplifiting but if you look at it the way I do, it's actually quite positive because Winston did, sort of, get a happy endind because whereas all his "friends" got tortured/killed/revealed to be thinkpol agents he actually got a nice ending with a sinecure job and he didn't get killed.
All he had to do was betray everyone he loved and surrender his will to the state.......

You cannot change other people, make their decisions, take their actions, protect their feelings. You cannot change the universe, right all wrongs, influence all circumstances, eliminate all suffering. But these are not the things that will determine your happiness.
Remember that it is your beliefs, your mindset and your actions that change your life and determine your happiness. So learn more about what could make you happy and change your mindset.
And never stop asking these three questions: What meaning am I giving to this part of my life? What other meaning could it have? What changes can I make to transform this part of my life?
