Instagram post 2192650831116121224_6868867240 "Knowing that words can create happiness or suffering, I am determined to learn to speak truthfully, with words that inspire self-confidence, joy, and hope. I will not spread news that I do not know to be certain and will not criticize or condemn things of which I am not sure. I will refrain from uttering words that can cause division or discord, or words that can cause the family or the community to break." —#ThichNhatHanh #YourWordsMatter
Instagram post 2190498854110427900_6868867240 "Our self-perception determines our behavior. If we think we’re small, limited, inadequate creatures, then we tend to behave that way, and the energy we radiate reflects those thoughts no matter what we do. If we think we’re magnificent creatures with an infinite abundance of love and power to give, then we tend to behave that way." —#MarianneWilliamson, A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of “A Course in Miracles” #SelfPerception
Instagram post 2189728950880953568_6868867240 "So you dated the wrong person and learned a hard lesson. You chose the wrong major and had to start over again. You cherished a friend who backstabbed you. It sucks, but it’s also going to work out. That’s life; you learn, hurt, love, cry, laugh, and keep going. You experience setbacks and you grow and it’s all okay." —sunflorally.tumblr.com Art by @pamsteenwijk
Instagram post 2187573679408598036_6868867240 "When something bad happens you have three choices: You can let it define you, you can let it destroy you, or you can let it strengthen you." —Unknown
Instagram post 2184657055886084328_6868867240 "Here is how I spend my days now. I live in a beautiful place. I sleep in a beautiful bed. I eat beautiful food. I go for walks through beautiful places. I care for people deeply. At night my bed is full of love, because I alone am in it. I cry easily, from pain and pleasure, and I don’t apologize for that. In the mornings I step outside and I’m thankful for another day. It took me many years to arrive at such a life." —#OttessaMoshfegh #ABeautifulLife
Instagram post 2182511208092399623_6868867240 "Always remember that love will always come back to you. In a different form, different person, different hobby, different touch. But in any way, love will always come back." —princes-heels.tumblr.com #LoveWillReturn
Instagram post 2177509871768184317_6868867240 "Reminder: what’s yours will be yours. No need to rush. No need to feel anxious. All good things take time. And when it does come, your heart will be so grateful. Give it time. Rest your mind. And enjoy the present moments." —joli-coeur.tumblr.com #TakeYourTime

Instagram post 2175274195731395880_6868867240 "The universe is not in a hurry. You are. It’s why you are anxious, stressed and disappointed. Trust that what was meant to be yours, will be yours." —b-eachsoul.tumblr.com #TrustTheUniverse
Instagram post 2172339396679090208_6868867240 "Seize the moments of happiness, love and be loved! That is the only reality in the world, all else is folly." ⁠—#LeoTolstoy, #WarAndPeace
Instagram post 2169433357877017817_6868867240 "When has shrinking ourselves because of fear helped us? It has never helped. Fear is an emotion that should visit and when it leaves, it should make you brave. It should make you want to do more, create more and learn more. Fear is normal but when we let fear stay too long, it paralyzes us." —#LaraWitt, from “Decolonizing Poetry: an interview with Ijeoma Umebinyuo.” #BeBrave
Instagram post 2167276484726009294_6868867240 "Your diet is not only what you eat. It’s what you watch, what you listen to, what you read, the people you hang around… be mindful of the things you put into your body emotionally, spiritually, and physically." —Unknown
Instagram post 2165115815402623595_6868867240 "Start over my darling. Be brave enough to find the life you want and courageous enough to chase it. Then start over and love yourself the way you were always meant to." —#MadalynBeck #StartOver
Instagram post 2164385059097042881_6868867240 "Cultivate beauty (aesthetic sense) for yourself and your loved ones. Beauty is not a matter of money and consumption. It resides in all things, primarily in the small details of life." —#DominiqueVenner #Beauty #TheSmallThings
Instagram post 2162212991467307350_6868867240 "When I was younger, I used to think true love was tumultuous and intense. But now, I feel like real love is gentle. Passionate in a soft, sweet way. Not fireworks and drama, but a love that’s like coming home, the breeze on a still summer day. A balm to the aches of the world." —bakwaaas.tumblr.com #RealLove
Instagram post 2157691071111833579_6868867240 "I aspire to be a woman who loves to wakes up early in the morning and loves what she does for a living everyday. Travels often, spiritually secured, and financially stable." —londoninlove.tumblr.com
Instagram post 2152040073580202351_6868867240 "You ask everybody you know: How long does it usually take to get over it? There are many formulas. One year for every year you dated. Two years for every year you dated. It’s just a matter of willpower: The day you decide it’s over, it’s over. You never get over it." —#JunotDiaz, This Is How You Lost Her
Instagram post 2149140903445907862_6868867240 "Be the person you are looking for; be kind, loving, passionate, compassionate, understanding, generous, pure, faithful, committed, hardworking, respectful, honest, loyal, and adventurous. The person you are looking for will find you and you will find them because your energies will attract you to each other like magnets." —nothingistruer-thandeath.tumblr.com #FoodForThought
Instagram post 2147123050626662330_6868867240 "Instead of trying to fix your entire life, focus on adding some good things to tomorrow. Focus on making every tomorrow a good one."⁠ —smiles-advice.tumblr.com
