What we covet is not always meant for us. Instead, if we focus on nurturing what we have, it will grow and lead us to the next right thing for us. 

Your legacy is what you give, how you love, and those who stay.

You do not follow your first impulse to lash out when you are upset or angry. 

There will be times when you have to move on from a relationship before you feel ready to.

A few years ago, I fell in love with a writer.  When I stumbled upon his essays, it was love at first read. He was a brilliant man and a powerful wordsmith.

You don’t talk every day, but you remain well informed about each other’s lives.

On those days, when the tears don’t stop and the sleep does not arrive, when lightning strikes and rips into your life, please remember this: You are going to make it through.

A love story. Sort of.

If you are horrified by what’s happening, feeling ignored and angry, wondering what you did wrong, I need you to remember this: You did the best you could in looking after yourself and getting through till this day.

Beauty is subjective. You don’t need to find yourself beautiful for someone else to find you beautiful.

Not all of us need to wake up, meditate, and work out. Don’t buy into what you read online and what someone else’s routine is like.

The cornerstone of self-love is being able to trust yourself.
