The power of language can shape our reality from "summary" of In Search of Lost Time, Volume II: Within a Budding Grove by Marcel Proust

In these moments of introspection, I began to see the world around me in a new light. The power of language, I realized, was not merely a tool for communication, but a force that could shape our very perception of reality. As I delved deeper into the words and phrases that filled my mind, I found that they had the power to mold my thoughts and emotions, to create a world that was uniquely my own. Through the pages of books and the conversations of friends, I began to see how language could be used to construct different versions of reality. Words could paint vivid pictures in our minds, conjuring up images and emotions that were both real and imagined. They could transport us to distant lands, evoke long-forgotten memories, and inspire us to dream of worlds beyond our own. But I also came to understand that language was not a neutral force. The words we used, I realized, carried with them a weight and a significance that could shape our beliefs and attitudes in profound ways. The stories we told ourselves, the narratives we constructed, could influence how we saw ourselves and others, how we interpreted the events of our lives, and how we made sense of the world around us. In this realization, I saw the power of language to shape our reality in both subtle and profound ways. It was not just a tool for communication, but a force that could influence our thoughts, emotions, and perceptions of the world. And as I continued on my journey of self-discovery, I knew that the words I chose to use would have a lasting impact on the reality I created for myself.
