First know yourself, then you will begin to understand why things are as they are, and why life is as it is.
Bitterness is a result of clinging to negative experiences. It serves you no good, and closes the door to your future.
Put the past behind you, the present moment is all that matters, in the life of those who want to be happy.
If you keep picking a scab it will bleed and never heal. If you keep dragging the pain of the past up, it will never heal.
The day you let go of fear and instead embrace understanding, is the day you begin to live.
Become the person you were meant to be, light your inner fire and follow your heart's desire.
Life is a reflection of what you think. If your thoughts are negative, the world you see will be the same.
Unless you heal the root of a problem, the pain will not go away. You can hide from it, but the problem stays until you dig deep.
You cannot evolve unless you are willing to change.
A lack of love is the cause for most problems in life, when love is missing, nothing can flourish, only pain thrives.
In the end you get what you deserve, the amount of effort you put in determines the amount of joy that you receive.
There is no need to drag yourself through life, let go of the struggle & give yourself the time & love to find balance.
Be original, stop pretending to be someone you are not, be your own light in this world.
Let go of resentment, for it will hold you back. Do not worry about what could've been, what is to come is what matters.
Remember you are a different person now than before, you are wiser & stronger for the trials that you have been through.
Every second you spend with the wrong person, is a second wasted in the search for true love.
