Soar: Uplifting quotes for those who need hope, a hug, or a high- five.

In a world that’s often filled with words of hatred and scenes of terror and conflict, there is a bright light that shines for us all—a beacon to guide us through the darkness.

Motivated by her own reaction to the daily acts of violence and tragedy seen around the world, author Emily Talkow was moved to write a book based on what gives her comfort during difficult, disheartening times: inspirational quotes.

There’s no instructional manual on how to navigate the highs and lows of life. It’s easy to focus on the negatives that surround us and forget about all of the beauty in the world—and most importantly, in others.

Quotes are a source of encouragement and spiritual medicine for Talkow, and in Soar, she spreads this love and hope to the masses. Soar is a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day, offering hope and inspiration to anyone who needs it.
