“You can be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world, and there’s still going to be somebody who hates peaches.”

“People will love you, people will hate you, and none of it will have anything to do with you.”

“Stop letting people who do so little for you control so much of your mind and emotions.”

“Standing alone is better than standing with people who hurt you.”

“I don’t care if it’s a sad good-bye or a bad good-bye, but when I leave a place I like to know I’m leaving it.”

““I don’t believe in magic.” The young boy said. The old man smiled. “You will, when you see her.””

“Sensitive people should be treasured. They love deeply and think deeply about life. They are loyal, honest and true. The simple things often mean the most to them. They don’t need to change or harden. Their purity makes them who they are.”

“Love is doing a kindness for someone else, not expecting to receive anything in return.”

“Be nice to yourself. It’s hard to be happy when someone is mean to you all the time.”

“A good friend finds you in the dark and carries you back to the light.”

“It’s okay to change your yes to a no. Yeses aren’t permanent. They’re something we choose again and again, each and every day. Something we have the right to recall and reconsider as soon as saying yes no longer feels conducive to our wellbeing and happiness. It doesn’t matter whether you said yes to a job, a date, a relationship, sex, a favor to a friend, a social endeavor, or a vow of silence — you don’t ever have to commit to something that forces you to compromise who you are and what feels right; especially if it’s something you agreed to under pressure, intimidation, or force. Changing your yes to a no might make people angry. It might hurt their feelings, cause them to see you as a flake, and result in lost connections. But if saying no means staying true to yourself, honoring your feelings, and making self-care a priority, it’s worth it. You are worth it. Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.”
