“Be phenomenal. Outshine the person you were yesterday.”

Let’s just appreciate Rick O’Connell for a moment

Life provides us with so many blessings. They often lie hidden amongst the chaos, simple and quiet. Yet, so magnificently beautiful.

“I asked the universe “Why so much pain?” and it whispered back, “Because you ignored red flags and now you are paying attention.””

“Real power comes from feeling our feelings, not from ignoring them. Real strength comes, not from pretending to be strong all the time, but from acknowledging our weaknesses and vulnerabilities when we feel this way.”

“It’s important to keep in mind that we can’t fix people. It’s hard because we empathize and want to help broken people. It isn't worth getting hurt in the process. Sacrificing who you are to save someone else is not okay. The broken person needs to realize they are broken and that is their job to figure out. They need your energy to thrive-Don’t lose yourself in the process.”

It’s okay to be annoying if you’re having a bad day. Or a bad week. It’s okay if you annoy and anger people you care for sometimes. Just like it’s okay if the people you care about annoy and anger you sometimes. You’re allowed to feel rankled or irritated. You are allowed to be inconvenient to people sometimes. It doesn’t mean you’re a bad person. It doesn’t mean they will leave you.
