Love & Forgiveness

"The love and attention you always thought you wanted from someone else is the love and attention that you first need to give to yourself. Letting go of your painful past is how you open yourself to a wonderful future.”

"It is not wrong to be upset. It is not wrong to cry. It is not wrong to want attention. It is not even wrong to scream or throw a f!t.”  "What is wrong is to keep it all inside. What is wrong is to blame and punish yourself for simply being human. What is wrong is to never be heard and to be alone in your pain. Share it. Let it out."

"There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love. When we try to control, we become controlled; when we release, we become free.  Control is not humble; control is arrogant."

What we do to others, we do to ourselves. Your message means less than the way the message is delivered, because in actuality, the way the message is delivered, IS the message."

"Your struggle is your strength. If you can resist becoming negative, bitter or hopeless, in time, your struggles will give you everything."

"Everything comes by being! Be the love you seek. Be the friend you seek. Be the lover you seek. Be the honesty you seek. Be the integrity you seek. Be the patience you seek. Be the tolerance you seek. Be the compassion you seek."

"Don't change just so people will like you! Like yourself and your relationships will change. There are people who will love you for - YOU."

"Mean people are really just sad people. They hurt others because they are hurting. Every person is born beautiful, and much of the ugliness in others was put inside of them by other hurting people."

"A person who makes few mistakes makes little progress. If you cannot be open-minded, then you do not possess your ideas, your ideas possess you. When you give others a new chance, a new chance is really being given to you.”
