even if they wronged you, and it's justified, punishment isn't the goal. it takes a strong person to let that intention go. people who are cruel may deserve it. but YOU are not cruel. it's not your job to behave in ways that are outside of your character. so stop putting in the extra work to act like them. you have better things to do. - renuka i. it would require a lot of effort on your part to hand down punishments to people who have hurt you. wouldn't you rather be spending your time with people who love you than plotting against people who don't? they don't get to have a reaction out of you. you are not a puppet. go enjoy your life. you deserve it. follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites check out my motivational books & products here

you've been searching for the person that you want to spend the rest of your life with, but that person is you, first and foremost. if you don't know how to love, respect, honour, understand yourself, how will you show someone else how to treat you? - renuka i. do YOU want to be with yourself? someone else can't love you into loving yourself. that's your job. and it should be a priority on your list before you even venture out to find a partner. how else will you know who to invite into your life? follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites check out my motivational books & products here

the truth is, people are loving you even if you don't recognize it right away as love. sometimes it looks like regular everyday things. like remembering when you have something important happening, texting to see if you got home okay, leaving the last piece for you. sometimes it's mundane, sometimes it's quiet, sometimes it's behind the scenes... but it's there. there for you to collect, to cherish. and all you have to do is pay attention. - renuka i. you may be frustrated, looking for traditional gestures of love. but maybe people are showing you they love you in their own way. pay attention. you might be missing out on tiny acts that when identified, will fill your heart with gratitude. it's important to mention that traditional gestures of love like saying I love you, physical touch, being romantic - are also important and valid. get to know your love language and your person's as well (your family and your friends, too). you'll be more accommodating once you learn how others show affection. follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites check out my motivational books & products here

it is an honour to provide for humanity. why? because not everyone is in a position to help. this is a privilege that we've been granted, yet we perceive it as a burden. - renuka i. if you have the means to help - either financially, with your expertise or with your time - take this as your responsibility as a member of humanity, to do your part. you may not always be in the position to help. there could come a day when you're the one receiving it. consider this a blessing. follow for daily inspirational quotes @renukawrites check out my motivational books & products here

what's good for you is someone who allows you the freedom to feel. gives you a home to be the rawest version of yourself. to break down, to rebuild - all in one place. not someone who demands and polices your composure, but someone who allows you to let your guard down. - renuka i. you shouldn't have to put a cap on your emotions, especially with the partner you share a life with, a home with. that's your safe space. where your feelings are welcome, even if they aren't the most positive feelings. don't feel guilty or ashamed when you aren't able to control your negative emotions. but make it a priority to rectify it. if we can always return to a place of harmony within the connection, then you're doing something right. follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites check out my motivational books & products here

a reminder that the offers you get will not always match your worth. whether it be in love, life or career. be mindful of what you accept. - renuka i. just because it's offered doesn't mean you have to accept it. ask yourself if this is what you deserve. ask yourself if they deserve you. this is what it means to understand your value. follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites check out my motivational books & products here

you have the power to change your circumstances. you don't have to sit there and take it. sometimes, we're so used to being stuck that we forget that exits can be created, and taken. - renuka i. leaving any situation we're used to isn't easy. and I don't want to make it sound simple. I just want to remind us all that it's always available as an option for us should we need it. you are not trapped. follow for more inspirational quotes @renukawrites check out my motivational books & products here
