Don't do something permanently stupid because you're temporarily upset.

The best revenge is nothing. Just forget that they even exist.

Have you ever had a moment when emotions just hit you when you least expect it?
Today was one of those days. ☹️💔

I fell in love with you because you loved me when I couldn't love myself.

Your competition isn't other people. Your competition is your procrastination. Your ego. The unhealthy food you're consuming. The knowledge you neglect. The negative behavior you're nurturing and your lack of creativity. Compete against that.

Do not chase another human being. Instead, chase your curiosity. Chase your development and your goals. Chase your passion. Strive to work for something bigger than yourself, and instead of trying to convince someone that you fit within their world.

Friendship picks you up when the world lets you down.

It's not what we have in life, but who we have in our life that matters.

I think books are like people, in the sense that they'll turn up in your life when you most need them.

~ Emma Thompson

People who know and love the same books as you have the road map to your soul.

You may be gone from my sight, but you are never gone from my heart. Mom today would have been your birthday and you should be here with me to celebrate but God had other ideas for you. Until we see each other again, I love you and miss you terribly everyday. 🥺❤️

As long as we have memories, yesterday remains. As long as we have hope tomorrow awaits. As long as we have love, today is beautiful.

All the attention in the world means nothing unless you're getting it from the one you want.

People don't always need advice. Sometimes all they really need is a hand to hold, an ear to listen, and a heart to understand them.

In the end, only three things matter:
How much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.

~Buddha

The past should stay in the past. It should never have enough power to ruin your present and your future.

You have to learn the difference between someone disrespecting you vs you feeling disrespected. Emotional eats hear from a place of offense. Sometimes it's not what they said, it's what you are triggered by. Unless you know your triggers, you'll see everything as an attack.

There's nothing more beautiful and powerful than a smile that has struggled through the tears.
