It’s been a long time since I’ve been me.

“Please don’t expect me to always be good and kind and loving. There are times when I will be cold and thoughtless and hard to understand.”

“I will breathe. I will think of solutions. I will not let my worry control me. I will not let my stress level break me. I will simply breathe. I will be OK because I don’t quit.”

“We… need to forgive ourselves… for all the things we didn’t do. All the things we should have done. You can’t get stuck on the regrets of what should have happened.”

Growing isn’t just about the end result; it starts with small steps and daily progress. Make progress every day, and your direction will become clearer.

“Honesty is a very expensive gift. Don’t expect it from cheap people.”

“I missed you even when I was with you. That’s been my problem. I miss what I already have, and I surround myself with things that are missing.”

“But never have I been a blue calm sea. I have always been a storm.”

“Sometimes giving someone a second chance is like giving them an extra bullet for their gun because they missed you the first time.”

“Never give up hope. Things can change overnight, and problems can dissolve in the light of a new day’s sun.”

“You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.”

“Life is all about balance. You don’t always need to be getting stuff done. Sometimes it’s perfectly OK, and absolutely necessary, to shut down, kick back, and do nothing.”

“The things that go unsaid are often the things that eat at you – whether because you didn’t get to have your say, or because the other person never got to hear you and really wanted to.”

“I understood myself only after I destroyed myself. And only in the process of fixing myself did I know who I really was.”

“Brave doesn’t mean you’re not scared. It means you go on even though you’re scared.”

“If it’s meant to be, leave it be. The best you can do is working hard to get where you want to be.”
