I feel blessed that life never really went my way, it’s a blessing that it didn’t follow my rules or my direction because I was totally lost.

Treat people the way they treat you.

If you want people to be softer with you, you have to be softer with yourself. You can’t be your own worst enemy and expect the world to be on your side.

Every so-called ‘heartbreak’ was better for me, I was being saved from something malicious or someone manipulative. Every heartbreak was a wake-up call that I needed to change something about myself to be a better person.

Falling in love with your best friend is the best way to avoid another heartbreak.

All she ever needed was a chance. All she ever wanted was more time with you.

You taught me the kind of love that communicates, the kind of love that doesn’t leave messages ignored
or questions unanswered. The kind of love that’s clear as day.

I’m certain that you’re tired of people telling you that you need to play hard to get, that you shouldn’t be too available, don’t text first, don’t send more than one text, try to be witty and funny, try to…

You can’t find yourself among those who made you feel lost, abandoned and misunderstood. You can’t revive your soul when you’re surrounded by those who wrecked it.

When God doesn’t give you something you’re praying for right away, it means he’s not done teaching you what you need to learn. He’ll bring you changes that will ultimately change you and you’ll look back and understand why you had to wait.

It’s learning every day that you can survive anywhere, but you can only truly live at home.

You look back and you just feel stupid. You can’t forgive yourself for falling or believing all the lies. You reread every text. You relive every memory. And it all starts making sense — he never wanted love.

We consult our friends to brew up the perfect response, the wittiest comeback or the funniest joke so they can see that we’re cool, attractive, charming and funny. We follow everyone else but ourselves.

Thank you for making me cry, the tears washed away the mist that stopped me from seeing your true colors all these years but now I see things more clearly.

Sagittarius. They travel. Somewhere like India or Thailand so they can meditate, let go and focus on their mental and emotional well-being. They need to go really far away, turn off their phones and just focus on recovering.

And what I really learned about closure is that you don’t need it. You don’t need an apology from someone who gave up on you. You don’t need to hear someone pinpoint why you’re not right for them.

I’m going to see all the good things you failed to see in me. I’m going to start taking care of my heart instead of allowing you to break it. I’m going to pick up everything you’ve demolished and use it as a foundation to build myself up again. Without you.

They remember your failures and your losses very well but they never celebrate your accomplishments with you. They find more joy in your setbacks than your comebacks.
