Most people are never fully present in the now, because unconsciously they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one. But then you miss your whole life, which is never not now. – Eckhart Tolle
You Can’t Change the Past
You can’t change the past, but you can make adjustments in your present for a better future.
If It Was Meant
If it was meant to last, it would have.
There Are Times
There are times when it will go so wrong that you will barely be alive, and times when you realise that being barely alive, on your own terms, is better than living a bloated half-life on someone else’s terms. – Jeanette Winterson
I Still Have a Long Way
I still have a long way to go but I’m already so far from where I started and I’m proud of that.
Be Kind to Yourself
Be kind to yourself. Stop telling yourself that whatever you are struggling with “should” be easy. If something is hard for you, it is hard for you. There are probably Reasons, though those may just be how you are wired. Acknowledge these things. When you finish something hard, be proud! Celebrate a little.
And really, just stop saying “should” to yourself about your thoughts and feelings in any context. You feel how you feel. The things in your head are the things in your head. You can’t change either directly through sheer force of will. You can only change what you do. Stop beating yourself up for who and what you are right now–it isn’t productive. Focus on moving forward. – Keely Chaisson
Don’t Let Others
Don’t let other people define your worth. – Unknown
Ignoring Things
Ignoring things won’t make them go away. It only makes it harder to face them when they finally come around. – A. Meredith Walters
