As exhausting as this year has been, it’s time to let go of everything that mentally destroyed you.

I hope you choose to be someone who remains soft.

I hope you never settle for a love that makes you feel like you have absolutely nobody to run to with the thoughts in your head.

This is your reminder that you are not weak because of your emotions—you’re strong because of them.

Selfless people are so busy giving their energy and time to other people just because that’s who they are, while others are so busy taking them for granted.

In a world where you don’t know what to expect anymore, find the art in laughing at your messes, your failures, your insecurities, your heartbreaks—everything.

Tell me how your family first broke your heart and I’ll tell you of your resilience and willingness to believe that love doesn’t always end in disaster. 

You are the God of miracles and breakthroughs, and I need You to restore every part of me that I no longer recognize because of my grief.

When you lose someone you love, it drastically changes you to the point of no return.

When you’re suffering from a great loss, you’ll do anything and everything just to forget the excruciating pain of missing them.

Without strong role models, you think strength is not feeling anything.

Everyone wants success, but the problem lies in how far you’re willing to go to get it.

Pain is the best opportunity for growth, and You know this.

The truth is, you’re not being brave or fearless by pretending you can’t feel your emotions. No matter how unattached you seem, being distant and emotionally unattached isn’t a sign of strength.

No matter your skin color or race, use your voice to speak up and put racism to an end.

When you have the emotional maturity to process your emotions in a healthy manner, you know that bad feelings don’t last for a long period of time.

Instead of having these self-sabotaging thoughts about your trauma, shifting your mindset lets you realize that your life has always been under your control all this time.

Modern dating is comprised of casual relationships just to feel momentarily good about ourselves, until we remember that it was never love to begin with. Modern dating is the wall that breaks relationships apart, because it’s meant to be a short-term, casual thing- something not meant to last.
