Chougheyes Art & Philosophy

“Make sure you don’t start seeing yourself through the eyes of those who don’t value you. Know your worth even if they don’t.”

“Be the one who nurtures and builds. Be the one who has an understanding and forgiving heart. Be the one who looks for the best in people. Leave people better than you found them.”

“If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it.”

“My mission, should I choose to accept it, is to find peace with exactly who and what I am. To take pride in my thoughts, my appearance, my talents, my flaws and to stop this incessant worrying that I can’t be loved as I am.”

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”

never underestimate the power of:

“You can only understand people if you feel them in yourself.”

“The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be.”

“I demand unconditional love and complete freedom. That is why I am terrible.”

“Common sense means living in the world as it is today; but creative people are people who don’t want the world as it is today but want to make another world.”

“No matter what choice you make, it doesn’t define you. Not forever. People can make bad choices and change their minds and hearts and do good things later; just as people can make good choices and then turn around and walk a bad path. No choice we make lasts our whole life. If there’s ever a choice you’ve made that you no longer agree with, you can make another choice.”
