“People come and go. Some are cigarette breaks, others are forest fires.”

Once you’ve accepted your flaws, no one can use them against you.

Be with someone who makes you better.

These scars are my documentation of the mistakes I’ve made in trying to overcome them. I am both the things I’ve done to myself and the things done to me. Along these nerve endings, you will find a history of me.

But I think it’s very healthy to spend time alone. You need to know how to be alone and not be defined by another person.

When you look at your life and feel at peace because of changes you’ve made, that’s recovery.

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