You think you are ready to take the leap but when someone great comes along, you start freaking out that you have to spend the rest of your life with them. You feel trapped and want to leave.

I’m learning to discard the parts of myself that don’t fit and shed the layers that no longer belong.

You let your anxiety win by giving away your power.

Your needs are as important as anyone else’s. You are human just like everyone else. There is a limit to the sacrifices and compromises you can make. Don’t lose yourself trying to give other people what they are unable to give themselves.

You stay up at night wondering how you can contribute to the world and make a difference. You invest in developing your spiritual, intellectual and moral values.

Smart people give up easily when they fail. They are used to solving problems very quickly compared to others. When they fail at something, they think that something is wrong with them and give up, instead of realizing that it is simply another stepping stone to success.

This is the kind of love that will never give up on you, even when you’ve given up on yourself. This is the kind of love that will build a foundation of mutual trust and respect upon which stands strong partnership.

The only thing that will matter in the end is whether we used our pain to give back to the world or simply take from it. The only thing that will leave us fulfilled will be whether we tried to be the best possible versions of ourselves.

Invest in fixing yourself. Invest in piecing yourself back together, so that you don’t fall apart at the hands of the next thing that you take a chance on.

I understand how you think that true love is unconditional, it’s about being there for someone else, but you can’t always show up alone.

Look at your friend’s face when they’re talking to you. Watch the way their eyes brighten and how they smile, when they talk about something they care about.

When the cards don’t always work in your favor, when you find yourself at the losing end of a deal, when shit hits the fan, then that’s when the real you comes out.
