I can’t control my feelings, but I’m learning to have a say in how much my feelings control me.

Making someone responsible for your misery also makes them responsible for your happiness. Why give that power to anyone but yourself?

My mind loves you so much it wants to own you. My heart loves you so much it wants to set you free.

You choose who gets your attention, and you don’t have to give it to anyone who makes you feel like crap. Period.

Our differences are beautiful, yet sometimes connection requires us to focus on our similarities, like the fact that we are all trying, all struggling, all wanting to be seen and to be loved. Perhaps if we start there, with this basic understanding of what it means to be alive, we will grow in our connection to one another and learn to love the beautiful differences that embody our improbable human reality.

There is absolutely no point in comparing ourselves to others. Everyone brings to the world exactly what they are meant to bring, and in doing so touches exactly who they are meant to touch.

Life changes completely when Love comes first.I don’t need to know you to love you. I’ll start by loving you and see what I come to know from there.

If you want to change someone, start and end with yourself. You're all you've got control over.yes, other people can change.no, you can’t change other people.

I stayed, to love you.I left, to love myself.
