11. Came from one of my very best friends, we go waay back. She sent me an audio on WhatsApp talking about something funny. I don’t remember what it was, but I know it was funny enough that I started recording a reply, but couldn’t stop laughing, so I ended up sending her a sixty second laugh clip. She replied “I’ll listen to this every morning. Your laugh makes me happy. I miss you.”

12. “Your eyes are beautiful.”

I don’t know why I remember that one so much. I guess it was just a unique comment.

Trace the scars life has left you. It will remind you that at one point, you fought for something. You believed.

“You are the only person who gets to decide if you are happy or not—do not put your happiness into the hands of other people. Do not make it contingent on their acceptance of you or their feelings for you. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if someone dislikes you or if someone doesn’t want to be with you. All that matters is that you are happy with the person you are becoming. All that matters is that you like yourself, that you are proud of what you are putting out into the world. You are in charge of your joy, of your worth. You get to be your own validation. Please don’t ever forget that.” — Bianca Sparacino
