“Note to self: You’ve gotta do this for you. This is for you. This isn’t about anybody. Live for you. Honor you. Never lose sight of that.”

When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment; he needs help. That's the message he is sending.

“Who you were, who you are, and who you will be are three different people.”

“How do you know someone is for you? They bring peace you haven’t found anywhere else. They support your effort. They water your growth.”

“The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself.”

“Always, always trust your first gut instincts. If you feel something’s wrong, it usually is.”

“Sometimes I have to remind myself that I don’t have to do what everyone else is doing.”

“The past doesn’t need you anymore. Your future does.”

“Your absolute best won’t be good enough for the wrong person. At your worst, you’ll still be worth it to the right person. Remember that.”

“You have this one life. How do you wanna spend it? Apologizing? Regretting? Questioning? Hating yourself? Dieting? Running after people who don’t see you? Be brave. Believe in yourself. Do what feels good. Take risks. You have this one life. Make yourself proud.”

“In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: it goes on.”

“It was good for a while, being empty. I didn’t hurt anymore. But as time went on, it was like I could hear myself from far away, begging for permission to come back.”

“Know that you can start late, look different, be uncertain and still succeed.”

“Some days are for falling in love with people; some days are for loving life and hanging out in cities; others are for quietly withdrawing from the world, and relishing the pleasure of your own company.”

“If they don’t need you, it’s okay. You do not live for other people.”
