Stop trying to find the right person, be the right person. Instead of being with someone who makes you happy, first, be someone who makes you happy.

“You will fall in love with three people in your life. The first is a firework. It lights up the sky, it's a big bang, but it fades very, very quickly. And we all fall in love with that person. There's a second person you'll fall in love with, which is the candle. It burns not as bright, it's a bit calmer, it burns longer, but you might even put it out yourself because it gets boring. And then the third person is the mirror. And the mirror compassionately holds up to you a reflection of yourself. Shows you all your flaws, your weaknesses. And the problem is a lot of us can't handle that. We think the mirror is broken because we don't want to see that. And so we push that away. And that's usually the one. The one's usually the person who can hold up the mirror to you in a compassionate and non-judgmental way.”

Stop trying to find the right person, be the right person. Instead of being with someone who makes you happy, first, be someone who makes you happy.

Stop trying to find the right person, be the right person. Instead of being with someone who makes you happy, first, be someone who makes you happy.

When people act strong, it doesn't mean they're not breaking inside. When people push you away, it doesn't mean they don't want you to stay.
