They give me poison.
And i give them my memories.
I lived on. And they died

Franz Kafka

The universe doesn’t hand out status for free.

It makes you take the long scenic route through chaos, stress and high voltage adversity.

It’s not the breakup that hurts.

It’s realizing how much you gave to someone who never deserved it — the time, the effort, the love, and all the chances you gave them.

You may regret what you did for them, but don’t regret being genuine.

Your love wasn’t weakness. Your effort wasn’t wasted.

Take the lesson, not the pain.

Stop blaming yourself for loving someone who couldn’t value you.

Sometimes losing someone is just life’s way of reminding you to choose yourself.

Their power lies in your fear, if you don’t fear them, they have no power.

Gamblers lose twice. Not only what they had, but the dreams of what they could have had.

Fate, before it takes you to your destination, turns you into the person who deserves to arrive.

You’re not as deserving as you think you are.

Happen to the universe before it happens to you.

I don’t think anyone will ever know the whole story.

There is no joy without pain. Pain carves a ravine in your heart.

And it’s only the ravine that fills with joy.

Without pain, with a smooth undamaged heart, joy splashes off like water off a duck’s back.

There is no light without dark.
