Losing someone close to you is one of those rare occasions where no matter what someone may say to you, there is nothing that can be said to eliminate the pain.

So often we shy away from this pain, but it’s only when we truly allow ourselves to feel it that we can gain perspective on the situation and realize that perhaps we were given a gift in disguise.

Whether it’s a beautiful house, a significant other that we love, or as simple as your favorite cup of coffee, we can always find something to be grateful for.

It is never too late to try.

Heartbreak doesn’t mean you are broken. It just means you haven’t met the right one yet.

And the best part is about a vision: You have no clue how it’s going to turn out.

Your life is not meant to be a straight line, nor was it ever supposed to be a smooth journey.

Here’s to you. While our early 20s can perhaps be the most exciting and prolific time of our lives, it can also be the most challenging time.

Happiness was never about accomplishment. Happiness was never about achievement. Happiness was never about being perfect.

As each of us navigates our way through life, there will inevitably be times that we feel lost, uninspired, and off-track.

Before you judge someone, you should know that they have dreams, aspirations and goals just like you.

When we break down these barriers, we can see that our self-doubt that has directed our lives up until now is just ourselves getting in our own way.
