Words of Wisdom



You deserve to be happy.  You deserve to live a life you are excited about. You are not in this world to live up to the expectations of others, nor should you feel that others are here to live up to yours.
You have to dare to be yourself, and follow you own intuition, however frightening or strange that may feel or prove to be. Success is ultimately about spending your life happily in your own way.

True strength is in the soul and spirit. It’s about having faith and trust in who you are, and a willingness to act upon it.  Decide this minute to never again beg anyone for the love, respect, and attention that you should be showing yourself.

It’s important to be nice to others, but it’s even more important to be nice to yourself.  When you practice self-love and self-respect, you give yourself the opportunity to be happy.  When you are happy, you become a better friend, a better family member, and a better YOU.

You might feel unwanted and unworthy to one person, but you are priceless to another.  Don’t ever forget your worth.  Spend time with those who value you.  No matter how good you are to people, there will always be one negative person who criticizes you. Smile, ignore them, and carry on.
In this crazy world that’s trying to make you like everyone else, the toughest battle you’ll ever have to fight is the battle to be yourself. The things that make you different are the things that make YOU, and the right people will love you for it.

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle, just like you.  Every smile or sign of strength hides an inner struggle every bit as complex and extraordinary as your own.
Supporting, sharing and making contributions to other people is one of life’s greatest rewards.

Hope for the best, but expect less.  And remember, the magnitude of your happiness will be directly proportional to your thoughts and how you choose to think about things.  Even if a situation or relationship doesn’t work out at all, it’s still worth it if it made you feel or taught you something new.

The end.
