“Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone. Your posture can shine your heart or transmit anxiety. Your breath can radiate love or muddy the room in depression. Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom. Your every act can open hearts and minds.”

i want to love them-- primarily, myself-- right, so i will make myself better.
i also have a lot of problems to cope with. but i want to be of help for others-- most especially to the people who mean to me a lot-- offer advice whenever i can, and be their shoulder to cry on if needed regardless of these because i can relate to their feelings just as well as they can relate to mine.
i think the best thing you have to do first before you ask for forgiveness is to fix yourself and be better.
we all share the same dilemmas. but how we handle it is what makes us different from one another.

recovery can be difficult and can take a lot longer than you expected. don’t be hard on yourself for getting burnt out. have compassion even when it feels like your not recovering “fast enough” or “correctly.” everyone is on their own path.
do not rush the healing process; take your time. just as a flower took a while to grow into a beautiful creature.
why is it easier to still keep on wanting someone even if it hurts?
there's a major difference between striving to live and just getting by.
it is ironic how the way people will do anything to earn your forgiveness yet do barely anything to keep from hurting you in the first place.
