Words of Optimism



I began the process of research for this competition, by looking for words of optimism already spoken, or quoted by famous people. Many quotes that I found which appealed to me, were by Author, Political Activist and Lecturer, Helen Keller, who overcame so much adversity in her life with her disabilities. Helen was deaf and blind, which resulted from an illness as a toddler. The quote by Helen Keller was taken from her writings on Optimism in 1903.

Helen’s words significantly reflect who I am, a believer in optimism and I remain positive in whatever I do to achieve my goals.  My design reflects the Art Deco period, which I find simple, yet classically appealing.
