The Power of Language and Stories

January 10th 2008 05:46
We don’t describe the world we see; we see the world we describe. Language has the power to alter perception. We think in words. These words have the power to limit us or to set us free; they can frighten us or evoke our courage. Similarly, the stories we tell ourselves about our own life eventually become our life. We can tell healthy stories or horror stories. The choice is ours.




Thanks Erik for the pic

Great post Mis - very, very true. You have reminded me to put a bit more expression into the narration of my own life...

I love this Mis

It`s so true isn`t it? That we create our own view of the world?

These words

We don’t describe the world we see; we see the world we describe.

Mis,
I just wanted to drop in and say I havnt forgotten you - I miss you, and I find one of the most insightful posts Ive ever read. Like Ash, I love that sentence, but this..

We think in words

Similarly, the stories we tell ourselves about our own life eventually become our life.

The whole paragraph is just magical, believe me, but these are such great secrets these.....Ive been telling myself so many stories.....I have no idea which way Im going anymore.
