You cannot force a person to respect you like you cannot buy love but you can refuse anyone who doesn't do these things freely a pass into your life.

You could spend a lifetime waiting for someone to love the real you but if you don't know who you really are, you are wasting your time.

You cannot water your own plant if you are waiting on other people's approval to do so. Stop living your one and only life waiting for validation, start seeking your own inner voice to guide you.

Master the art of learning when it is time for you to let go of dead situations. Letting go doesn't always mean the end, sometimes it is the start of something beautiful.

Your time, energy and words.Three things you can never get back once they've been exchanged. Choose wisely.

You deserve the same love that you are willing to give

‪Am I dead? Is this heaven? No, I can't be. I'm realizing this as I process my second sensation: discomfort. I turn my head. Ooh, a TV. Maybe it is heaven.

I'm leaving my sorrows and all my memories behind to see what I find, somewhere in the shade near the sound of a sweet singing river, somewhere in the sun where the mountains make love to the sky.

Surely nobody would be a charlatan, who could afford to be sincere.

Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself.
