Everything that is meant for you is still waiting for you. Even if you have failed in the past, even if you feel so stuck you cannot imagine making it through one more day. Even if you messed up every shot you were given, if you don't believe in yourself, if you're afraid, if you aren't sure how things will work out, and even if nobody else would understand. You still contain within you the potential of all you ever wanted to be. It is never too late.

tip of the day :
control how you respond to the things which are sent to destroy your peace.

stop expecting other people to support or cheer for you. because half of them can't even support themselves. understand that not everybody has your best interest in mind. be ok with that. not everyone is hoping for you to succeed. and that's not because they are bad people but because they are struggling. and when they are struggling, other people's success can seem like a threat to them. don't take that personally.

i hope this year you stop begging people to love you and instead, surround yourself with those who already have the capacity to love you the way you want to be loved. deeply, fairly, consistently and unconditionally.

When you start to know someone, all their physical characteristics start to disappear. You begin to dwell in their energy, recognize the scent of their skin. You see only the essence of the person, not the shell. That's why you can't fall in love with beauty. You can lust after it, be infatuated by it, want to
own it. You can love it with your eyes and your body but not your heart. And that's why, when you really connect with a person's inner self, any physical imperfections disappear, become irrelevant.

one day someone is going to come into your life & cherish you for everything that you are. the way you speak, the way you eat, the way your belly folds when you sit XD even the way you laugh at little things. Everybody has a soulmate, just breathe & be patient.

Some people just aren't ready. No matter how much time passes. They'll never understand the type of sacrifices you made for them. They'll never understand how long you waited. & they'll never ever understand how badly you wanted to make things work & how hard it was for u to let them go.

How can you think that you are weak? Remember the first time that you broke your heart, failed at something, or had a fight with your friend and thought to yourself this is it; "I will never be okay". But time passed and you wrapped yourself with the string of strength as you forgave, accepted new things and learned to love again. Remember the number of times you had to pick up after other people, the moments when you were the one who had to clean up the mess, when you had to make amends and be the bigger person. Remember the first time you felt pain deep, jittery pain in your ribs. The kind of pain that you could physically feel in your heart. Remember when you believed that you can never come through from this pain, when you hugged a corner of your room and turned off all the lights until they resembled the darkness within you. Remember the months that followed -waking up each morning with the weight of your heartache in your chest, and how hard it was to plant a smile on your face when your insides were hurting. You overcame those days. Remember you're the strongest.

once you betray me, you lose that version you once had of me forever. whether i choose to forgive you or not, you'll never get that same me again and it's not even intentional.. my heart won’t view you the same, my soul won't respect you the same & my mind won't ever forget it.

i used to think i was toxic, and probably i was. but i was only toxic because i needed a defense mechanism. im not toxic to those who are good to me & those who make me feel loved. i'm nice to those who are honest w me. i'm kind. i'm loving. i'm all of those things until I'm given a reason not to be

I just saw this quote that said “i’m glad we don’t talk anymore but I still think about you on your birthday”

and i couldn't agree more. there're a few people I outgrew, lost connection with, or cut ties with, even though I do not try to connect w/ them or send them wishes, but I always remember them on their birthday, wish the best for them, and I probably will, for the rest of my life.

social media got everyone feeling like they have many options. you actually got quantity not quality. pay attention to ppl who love, value, & hold you down in real life. the internet might make it look like there's plenty of fish in the sea, but most of it are not worth catching

You weren't pushed away or unwanted. Instead, think of it as being set free or given a new opportunity. Sometimes, what seems like a setback is actually a chance for a fresh start or a new direction in life. Embrace it and see where it takes you. A new chapter in your life awaits

It's okay to talk about the things you feel. About your depression. Your anxiety. Your stress. And all the things you worry about. It's okay to struggle with these things. To not know how to deal with it. To not know where to begin. Or. How to heal. It's okay. But please. Don't keep it all inside. Talk about what you feel. Be honest. Be open about it. This is how you change. This is how you will heal. By talking about it. By letting the people who care about you know what it is you're feeling. Don't bottle it up inside. Don't bury it. Let it out. Let the sun in. Like this. You're journey begins. Like this you properly grow.

Another student, an 18-year-old girl preparing for an entrance exam for higher studies, has tragically taken her own life.

Reading her suicide note, where she calls herself the worst daughter and apologizes to her parents for not being able to crack the exam, is depressing.

These deaths are preventable. I won't comment on this specific case, but generally, the top cause of stress is 'expectations from parents who love you so much.' This stress can be eased if parents engage in daily conversations with their children, reassuring them that their lives are not solely determined by exam results. It's okay to fail.

No mental health counselor can impact a kid's mind as much as parents. They raised the kid, they have their trust, they know their strengths and weaknesses, their stress-coping levels, etc.

Lastly, parents should realize that having an unemployed, unsuccessful child at home is still better than having no child at all. Many students fail these exams. Your child might be one of them, and that's okay. Perhaps they are destined for greater things, but for that, they need to stay aIive – and that's where your support comes in.

Again, I do not promote students who are not willing to study / work, but burdening them with unnecessary stress is what I am against of. Please listen to your children and take care of them. Life's not a race. Let them grow on their pace and with your guidance and patience they can do wonders!

your growth is not always visible to others and it's okay. you are still growing. you have healed from everything that used to trigger you, that is growth. you are always available for yourself, that is growth. you know who you need to protect your peace from, that is growth.

the relationship you have with yourself is the most complicated cause you can’t walk away from you. you have to forgive every mistake & deal with every flaw. you have to find a way to love yourself even when you feel disgusted with yourself.
