"The universe buries strange jewels deep within us all, and then stands back to see if we can find them.
The hunt to uncover those jewels—that’s creative living.
The courage to go on that hunt in the first place—that’s what separates a mundane existence from a more enchanted one.
The often surprising results of that hunt—that’s what I call Big Magic."
Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear
Book by Elizabeth Gilbert
My thoughts on this quote:
This quote changed my life. It changed the way I think and behave, especially toward working and creating content. I used to get distressed whenever I had to spend a lot of time and effort to create content, and I saw it as a painful activity. But then I realized that this is exactly what makes my life meaningful.
