Once you find happiness within yourself; nobody can take it away from you.

Maybe I should apologize now for how difficult I will be. I hope you realize it is not because I want to.

Wait for a love that gives you strength in the hardest of times, rather than kicks you while you’re down.

If you feel that you need to leave the relationship you’re in but are too scared, trust in change and just do it.

I may have said nothing, but in reality I was just thinking about how badly it was going to hurt when it all came crashing down.

Regardless of what I actually do today, it doesn’t change the fact that today needs to be just another day but really isn’t.

When you have gained her trust and she realizes that you do in fact care about her as a person, you will see a whole different side of her. The girl who once couldn’t see her own worth will have seen herself through your love and it was life changing. By allowing someone else to love her, she will learn the kind of love she deserves. The transformation will be that of night and day.

You find strength in your independence.

When you love yourself, you have a new found confidence that allows you to say whatever is on your mind. If you don’t agree with something, you say so. You won’t be afraid to tell your manager what you want or what you’d like to eventually do. You speak up for the raise you have been wanting. When you are interested in somebody, you tell them. When it comes to social games, you could care less. You say what

Remember that time you honestly thought you weren’t going to survive? Well look at you, surviving and shit. Once the relief sets in, you become thankful for the lessons you learned. You are able to acknowledge what the relationship taught you and you no longer spend sleepless nights obsessing over the end.

In two years, you can find yourself picking up the pieces. In two years, you can become strangers with the one person you thought you would never lose. In two years, you can find a strength from within that you never knew was possible.

Thank you for allowing me to learn some tough lessons on my own. Thank you for stopping me when I started to become destructive. Thank you for never questioning me, even when I questioned myself. You have saved me in so many ways.

Be with someone who tells you exactly where they stand and isn’t afraid to tell you what you mean to them. Find the person who sees the real you, flaws and all, and loves your regardless. Search for a partner who communicates with you.

Wait for the guy who gives you butterflies just by looking at you. Wait for the guy who can call you out on your shit. We all need someone who can bring us back to earth when things get a little crazy. Wait for the guy who pushes you out of your comfort zone to help you grow.

I’m going to let you in on a secret. Our self-worth has absolutely nothing to do with what other people think of us and everything to do with what we think of ourselves.

Time is limited and we are not going to waste it being unhappy or putting up with anything less than what we want.

Looking back on it now, I was so blind. All I could see was you and the fact I wanted nothing more than to be with you. I ignored every red flag and every person’s warning.

Washington: Canon Bar. This bar has an amazing liquor wall and toy cannons that are served with certain dishes. A must visit for the Seattle Area.
