One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what another has to say...Change will never happen if you lack the ability and courage to see yourself for who you really are.
Don't change just so people will like you!
Like yourself and your relationships will change.
There are people who will love you for — YOU.
You cannot save people from themselves. All you can do is stand firmly in your hopes for them, with compassion.
You cannot save everyone. Some people are going to destroy themselves no matter how much you try to help them.
Your job is not to judge..
Your job is not to figure out if someone deserves something or decide who is right or wrong.
Your job is to lift the fallen, restore the broken, and heal the hurting.
Stop holding-on to the wrong people.
Let them go on their own way; if not for you, then for them.
Haven't you been listening to your inner-voice?
Be honest, your gut has been screaming but you have been ignoring it.
How much more of your life are you going to throw-away for a lie?
Accept it.
Some people never change.
Some people have abusive, negative, controlling tendencies in their blood; they are wired for havoc, bickering and deception.
They know of no other way to interface with others except through their created chaos.
Chaos is their home-court advantage where they play their mind-games so they can have power over you; it's a rigged game you can never win.
They will wear you ragged and bring you to your knees emotionally and physically. In time they will destroy every wonderful thing you have in your life.
You are in danger: your health, your peace of mind, your happiness and maybe even your life.
There is more than one way to lose your life; quickly through violence, or fettered-away and wasted around dreadful, toxic people.
You must take control of your life and make good decisions for yourself. The insanity must end, for your sake and for theirs.
Some of the most amazing people in the world were not perfect; they were scarred by suffering, hardships, losses and imperfections.
But, when they recovered, they were stronger, wiser, and more loving and compassionate.
Your life is going to get better in the proper time, and you will be stronger and more at peace than ever before.
The truth is that life can be very difficult at times.
There can be a lot of pressure to keep it all together, to be smart and beautiful, to be so good and perfect.
But sometimes we don't have it together at all.
Sometimes we make mistakes.
Sometimes we don't feel good or look our best.
Sometimes things are not good at all and we feel miserable, lonely or depressed.
If you have lost your way and feel down, that feeling belongs to you.
If you feel miserable — it's yours, and no one should take it away from you.
Maybe things really aren't very good at all right now.
Maybe you have good reasons to be depressed, and the last thing you need is someone telling you to be happy.
But one thing you do need, is at least the respect from others to let you sit with your valid feelings.
You don't always need a cheerleader, but just someone to be a friend and acknowledge where you really are, and how you really feel.
Real problems can't be fixed with a motivational poster, a cute quote or a pat on the back. While you are in your pain,
it does not matter how intrinsically special you are, or
how beautiful life is, or
how precious each moment is if you don't accept and respect your suffering, it isn't going anywhere.
Submit to your pain; don't suppress your pain. If you can sit with your pain, listen to your pain and respect your pain in time you will move through your pain.
Pain is like a healing emotional fever.
Allow your pain to cleanse you and burn away what needs to die.
A new and better you will grow from the ashes. The most important parts of your life will be marked by pain.
Some of the most amazing people in the world were not perfect; they were scarred by suffering, hardships, losses and imperfections.
But, when they recovered, they were stronger, wiser, and more loving and compassionate.
Your life is going to get better in the proper time, and you will be stronger and more at peace than ever before.
Out of our suffering we emerge.
Our struggles are really our only hope.
Stay strong.
