Follow your heart and know that it will bring you exactly where you need to be.

Sit down and journal. Text an old friend. Listen to your favorite music. And breathe.

I won’t force you to love me. I won’t force you to like me. But I see what’s between us, and I’m willing to put in the work. I hope you are too.

We may have been taught that relationships need to be difficult, but actually they shouldn’t be. The real ones don’t have to be.

People are drawn to truly happy people. It’s healthy to take time for yourself.

Self-love is hard, but you are your own anchor. And you, only you, have the ability to stay grounded.

I often remember the people who showed up for me. Some are in my life today; some, not so much. I’m eternally grateful for all of them.

Confidence and self-love are attractive.

Tell me the truth, was this your plan all along? To hook me in? To get me where you wanted, knowing fully well you would never have me?

The kind of love that makes you excited to wake up each day. We may not fit into a box. But great loves never do.

Next year, I promise to leave you in the past. When the new year comes, I’m saying goodbye.

Life is hard. Understatement of the year.

We have to make ourselves happy. Life is tough. But so are you.

It’s okay to be selfish. You have the rest of your life to be selfless.

I mean it when I say I’m over you.

If you think, maybe he’s not that into me.. he’s probably not.

Because missing someone is hard.

Because some people aren’t capable of meeting her needs. Her desires. Her expectations. So she forgives.
