A frayed soul, worn and careless. Yet it fights for the suffering of a grieving heart.

What I hide behind that locked door is my shadow.

Yeah, I loved you, but I had to pretend, because somewhere, I knew. You didn’t love me the way I wanted you to, and I can’t change that. Ever.

Give yourself some credit for the days you made it when you thought you couldn’t.

Never do anything just because you feel obliged to. Your mental health is more important and if doing this puts you in an unwanted state, it’s not worth it.

Everyone has insecurities and things they want to change about themselves. It’s wrong to think you’re not good enough, but it’s good to try and strive to be a better you. It’s healthy to work on yourself.

Think of everything that happens as a chapter in the book called life. If you skip something nothing else will make sense. Sometimes it can be hard to understand, but it all makes sense in the end.

If you want a 10 you’ve to work like a 10. Sometimes you want to be a 10 at everything and the reality is that you just can't. So whenever confronting a task, ask yourself how much of yourself you're willing to give and how much is healthy for you to give.

Sometimes we are so focused on aligning with what we think is ‘right’ that we suppress/invalidate our feelings. This doesn't mean to act on every emotion, but it's important to acknowledge that the feelings do exist.

Don’t try to shut out feelings. The monster locked behind the door will only get angrier. Don’t try to bottle it up, because it will overflow.

You don’t know what’s going to happen next. There’s no way to predict your future. So why worry? The best you can do is fight through it smiling, take it as it comes.

Be proud of your accomplishments. Whether it’s getting out of bed in the morning or following your schedule. It’s progress, the tiniest bit of interest is better than nothing. It’s an achievement because you’re still trying.

Strive for progress, not perfection. You can be a masterpiece and still strive to be a better you. It’s about being better than your past self. It’s important to do it for you. In a way, everyone’s a work in progress.
