No one on this planet it can't make you happy. It is on you. Take care about your own needs and desires. You are set for the manager of your destiny. You can be happy or unhappy. And both requires effort - so decide.
Walk away from people who put you down.
Walk away from fights that will never be resolved.
Walk away from trying to please people who will never see your worth.
The more you walk away from things that poison your soul, the healthier you will be.
Never regret being a good person to bad people.
Your actions say everything about you, and their actions say everything about them.
Keep being you and let karma deal with them.
BOOK THAT CHANGED MY LIFE: Salvo Noè; Forbidden whining
foreword written by POPE FRANCIS
There is some dust in everyone's heart that has accumulated, rust that has formed, whenever a great burden is not removed. An encounter with the Lord who knows us, loves and heals us, an honest and open encounter with others, a love that unleashes the most beautiful potentials of our freedom, are the forces that are able to remove that stone, remove that rust and sweep away the dust!
We need it because we are not superhumans, but people on the road; fragile sinners, but at the same time privileged recipients of God's love: He knows how to turn crying into play.
Only love instills confidence, gives peace, restores courage and transforms life into a great construction site of hope.
Man laments because his deep sense of emptiness and his inability to give meaning to his life.
Moaning is a black hole in which energy is lost.
Moaning is a kind of labyrinth that always brings us to the wall.
The brain is created to be happy, but we sometimes "poison" it with negative thoughts.
We need to optimize what we have in order to do something more based on that. It is a mission, a mission of our lives.
To see is more than to look. Everyone is watching, few see.
What you kidnapped will be taken from you.
We are often the creators of our own evil.
💙🧡💜💛💚🧡
Just because things are the way they are doesn't mean they should be. It’s just that in order for the sleeves to roll up and things start to change, you have to pay the price, so most would rather lament than act.
GIOVANNI FALCONE

Growing from within means becoming good in the area we have chosen. It doesn't matter what you do, it matters how you do it. And an ordinary worker, if he does his job well, brings wealth to the community.
The growth of men and women who strive in a sport called life can all become champions.
It is in times of crisis that you need to strengthen your own person, because you need to be ready the moment the crisis passes.
And I could talk about the accident and put everything in a whimper. But I chose the harder path: I chose to GROW!
If we want to change the state of our spirit, we must change our speech.
To be happy, an acorn must become an oak.
Moaning is bad for the heart.
Before we judge others, we must look in the mirror.
🧡💚💛💜🧡💙
The whole world is a stage, and all men and women are mere actors, they have their entrances and exits and one man in his lifetime plays many roles.

It is learned from experience.
We are all students of life and every day experience gives us a lesson. Life is a teacher who gives us the signs by which we learn. Therefore, we always try to accept the positive side of things.
Even events that seem to be negative hide a great opportunity for inner growth.
The moaning is like a spider's web that we weave day in and day out to put everyone in danger of being its captives.
We learn by imitation. Imitation is a cognitive process and operates on two levels: conscious and unconscious.
If we want to manage our lives, we need to put our life habits under control. Namely, our life does not shape what we do here and there, but what we do every day.
It all depends on the way you think.
One of the core principles of good leadership is, “Thinking positive is a duty” because a positive leader attracts others and becomes a role model.
Unforeseen events are the salt of life. Life without a "stumbling block" would indeed be a great boredom.
The key success factor is the mental attitude, ie the way you look at things, the angle you use to capture the nuances and occasions and direct the potentials you have towards the goal.

SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT
💙🧡💜💛💚🧡
It starts with the DESIRE to make a DECISION which in turn activates DISCIPLINE, and it helps in COMMITMENT.
If you have a strong enough “WHY”, you will be able to endure any “HOW”.
The harder it is, the more we grow.
Adapting to the most demanding learning allows us to progress towards excellence.
He who has courage and does not allow his defeats to defeat him wins.
Straight roads have never produced excellent drivers.
Self-confidence must be a companion on all paths of growth. As long as you believe in yourself, you will not lose
Whoever moans often inefficient and ineffective.
No one is as desperate as someone who wants to be someone else or something different, from what they really are!
The ugliest thing that can happen is to feel like a slave to someone else’s desires.

Be true to your inner voice, only then will you have the opportunity to realize yourself. Always look for what is best for your being and don’t let anyone steal your sleep. Many are willing to devalue you, to give you advice you haven’t asked for, but know that the best advice is already in you. Always listen to your inner voice. You will be surrounded by hundreds of trials. The world is a r and everyone wants to sell their goods, including their frustrations. They are all sellers. But if you listen to all those salesmen, you will go crazy, you will get lost in the illusion of the subject. Don't listen to anyone! Close your eyes and listen to your inner voice. This is exactly the meaning of meditation: to listen to your inner voice.
🧡💚💛💜🧡💙
Try to give civil rights, to your emotions, accept them and respect them. IF YOU ARE ANGRY, BE ANGRY! It’s risky, but don’t smile because your smile will be fake, it will just be a mask! IF THERE IS ANGER IN YOU, AND YOU LAUGH, YOU BECOME A FALSE!
When you feel anger, BE ANGRY! There is nothing wrong with being angry. Express your anger and be free!
It is important to manage the emotion, ie to let it flow without becoming destructive. It is important to keep in mind that emotions are neither positive nor negative, all emotions are useful and have their role, so it is not necessary to deny them but to know how to EXPERIENCE them!
If you want to laugh, laugh. There is nothing wrong with laughing. Little by little you will notice that your psychophysical system is starting to function again. And when that happens, you will hear a harmonious sound. You will feel attuned to your own "frequency," the one closest to your being, your core.
Now you are FREE to EXPRESS YOURSELF and HAPPINESS COMES TO VISIT YOU, and with happiness also LOVE OF LIFE.
When you are thrilled with another person's success, it means that you are well on your way to success.
The measure of success is the amount of joy you manage to experience.
If you get away from yourself, if you lose yourself, you lose everything!
Being an optimist does not mean that everything is good, but that you can deal with everything in a good way!
And ugly things can become a source of growth!
Accepting your own difficulties means giving them a new dimension, preventing them from attacking you, from occupying you, from holding you back.
What happens to us is a STUMBLING STONE which, however, allows us to be more sensitive and to discover parts of ourselves that we would otherwise never discover.
Everything that happens to us has no meaning except what we ourselves add to it.
Often there are limitations in the eyes of the beholder.
I DECIDE that I will now be happy with what I have and that I will move on to improve my life and to turn everything that happens into a reason more to appreciate what I am and want to become!
💙🧡💜💛💚🧡
I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can fix the position of the sail and continue the journey.

Dear self, Your goal in life Should not be to be the best at everything But to be the best version of yourself To be fully authentic And embrace your unique way of perceiving, being And showing up in the world To approve of yourself Before seeking the approval of others To impress yourself Rather than seeking to impress others And to build a life that feels good to you Rather than one that simply looks good to others. At one point in your life You learnt to hide and mask certain aspects of yourself In order to please others You learnt to suppress who you were Out of fear of being rejected or harshly judged And you felt boxed in and limited By particular traits you possessed And labels you were given Feeling that these dictated who you were And who you were allowed to become But now you have come to appreciate That your uniqueness Is a source of strength And that you are a multidimensional being Who is more than a single characteristic or trait that you possess And that others may try to define you Label you And categorise you But they will fail to capture the entire essence of who you are As who you are Is expansive, full of growth and potential And dynamic and continually unfolding And you may refuse to allow the world to define you And instead, choose to define yourself. Words by Tahlia Hunter Artwork by the very talented Loui Jover.  |
She’s finally hit the point where she’s done with it all.
|
She’s done with people letting her down, trying to disrespect her and hurt her. No more. She has been beaten down and hit rock bottom, but she’s not staying there. She’s been lost for too long and it’s her time now. She’s rising up from the ashes with the courage of a thousand warriors and the roar of a million lions. No longer will she accept failure, mistakes and struggle. She’s been trapped in the fires of life for too long and she’s choosing to become more. She’s the Phoenix that cannot be stopped and she will rise up above those that would see her fail. Bruises, dents and scratches won’t dissuade her from pushing forward and rising up. Her veins are coursing with the fiery passion that fills her spirit and she won’t be denied. She’s been denied, put off and disregarded for far too long. She’s turning the page, setting her world ablaze and taking back her life. Pain from her past is the fuel for her ascent and she’s on fire with an undeniable hunger to rise above, to succeed, to start realizing her dreams. Those words that used to define her ..”can’t”, “won’t”, “shouldn’t”..those are forgotten, never to be uttered again. The world has never seen a creature like her, with an indomitable drive to find her wings and fly higher than she ever knew she could. She’s leaving behind the haters, the jealous, the disbelievers and anyone else that won’t stand by her side as she fights her way to the top. She knows what she deserves and she’s not settling for anything less than what she wants. She’s waited her entire life for this one chance to become what she was always meant to be. No more second guessing, hesitation or questions. She’s doing what she has to do to push through and fight for her dreams. It won’t be easy- her life never has been..but this time, she won’t be denied. She’s more than a warrior, a strong woman or a lioness, She is a Phoenix rising, And her time is now. |Ravenwolf  |

Stop comparing where you’re at with where everyone else is.
|
It doesn’t move you farther ahead, improve your situation, or help you find peace. It just feeds your shame, fuels your feelings of inadequacy, and ultimately, it keeps you stuck. The reality is that there is no one correct path in life. Everyone has their own unique journey. A path that’s right for someone else won’t necessarily be a path that’s right for you. And that’s okay. Your journey isn’t right or wrong, or good or bad. It’s just different. Your life isn’t meant to look like anyone else’s because you aren’t like anyone else. You’re a person all your own with a unique set of goals, obstacles, dreams, and needs. So stop comparing, and start living. You may not have ended up where you intended to go. But trust, for once, that you have ended up where you needed to be. Trust that you are in the right place at the right time. Trust that your life is enough. Trust that you are enough. ~ Daniell Koepke Photography: Casa Rosa  |
A CALL FROM HOME
|
Don't ask me for forgiveness, It isn't mine to give. Don't suffer with regret, Your life is yours to live. Don't worry that you've gone too far, Distance is a myth. Don't think you're undeserving After all the love you give. Don't think of things as shameful, You're human, you are flawed. Don't think of any locks, My love's an open door. Don't sit there thinking you deserve To live this life alone, Just find me, I am waiting, For you to come back home. Don't think you've lost the way, It's right there in your heart No need to move a muscle, Think of me and that's the start. I never really left you, You simply thought you'd gone, So come to where I'm with you; Come home, where you belong. Heather Lea  |

KINDNESS
|
Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside, you must know sorrow as the other deepest thing. You must wake up with sorrow. You must speak to it till your voice catches the thread of all sorrows and you see the size of the cloth. Then it is only kindness that makes sense anymore, only kindness that ties your shoes and sends you out into the day to gaze at bread only kindness that raises its head from the crowd of the world to say it is I you have been looking for, and then goes with you everywhere like a shadow or a friend. —Naomi Shihab Nye  |

Do not be hard on yourself. Give yourself time to heal from the difficulties life had to throw at you. Do not be hard on yourself. Give yourself time to grow from the lessons you had to learn on the journey called life. Do not be hard on yourself Give yourself time to pick yourself up when life knocked you to your knees. Do not be hard on yourself Give yourself time to mend from the brokenness weathered upon you by the storms of life But most of all Be kind to yourself For the bravery you have shown in overcoming the adversities the journey has brought you But you still walk the path With courage. © Sherry Durgapershad  |

If you see life as a competition, you are bound to lose.
|
There will always be someone faster, smarter, stronger than you, but you must recognize that there will never be anyone like you. It's time to give up the endless, self-defeating, and pointless pursuit to be better than someone else and focus on becoming a better you. Stop trying to be the best, and focus more on being and doing your best, and you may end up being the best. When you stop racing, you end up winning. Never compare yourself with someone else, you will always lose, only compare who you are today with who you were yesterday, if there is a progress, no matter how little it is, YOU WIN. There is really no race, unless the one that was given to you by God, that's the only race worth running and it's not usually against someone, but yourself. Only run the race marked out for you, others races shouldn't define yours, when you let it do, you will run the race, get to the end, even ahead of them, only to find out it wasn't yours to begin with. Life is in phases, everyone has their own place, occupy your space, fix your gaze, focus only on your race. You are in a competition with no one else but yourself. The day you stop racing with others is the day you win your race.  |
I’ve thought a lot on this lately and felt I needed to post.
|
I’ve heard more times than I can count by multiple people, “I just speak my mind, if they don’t like it, oh well.” “I’ll say what I want to say and they can just get over it.” “If you don’t like what I said, that’s your problem.” I want to say, Be Careful with your words, once said, they can only be forgiven, not forgotten. How you make others feel about themselves with your words, says a lot about you. Don’t say something permanently hurtful just because you’re temporarily upset. It only takes a few moments to hurt someone with our words but it can take years to repair the damage. Be sure to taste your words before you spit them out, think how you would feel if they were said to you. Don’t mix bad words with your bad mood. You’ll have many opportunities to change a mood, but no opportunity to replace the words you spoke. Speak only when you feel your words are better than your silence. You never know how long your words will stay with someone, long after you’ve forgotten them. Just because you’re free to say whatever you want doesn’t mean that you always should! Lastly, tomorrow you’ll have to live with the things you said. Think before you speak!  |

HOW I BECAME A WARRIOR
|
Once, I ran from fear so fear controlled me. Until I learned to hold fear like a newborn. Listen to it, but not give in. Honour it, but not worship it. Fear could not stop me anymore. I walked with courage into the storm. I still have fear, but it does not have me. Once, I was ashamed of who I was. I invited shame into my heart. I let it burn. It told me, "I am only trying to protect your vulnerability". I thanked shame dearly, and stepped into life anyway, unashamed, with shame as a lover. Once, I had great sadness buried deep inside. I invited it to come out and play. I wept oceans. My tear ducts ran dry. And I found joy right there. Right at the core of my sorrow. It was heartbreak that taught me how to love. Once, I had anxiety. A mind that wouldn't stop. Thoughts that wouldn't be silent. So I stopped trying to silence them. And I dropped out of the mind, and into the Earth. Into the mud. Where I was held strong like a tree, unshakeable, safe. Once, anger burned in the depths. I called anger into the light of myself. I felt its shocking power. I let my heart pound and my blood boil. Listened to it, finally. And it screamed, "Respect yourself fiercely now!". "Speak your truth with passion!". "Say no when you mean no!". "Walk your path with courage!". "Let no one speak for you!" Anger became an honest friend. A truthful guide. A beautiful WILD child. Once, loneliness cut deep. I tried to distract and numb myself. Ran to people and places and things. Even pretended I was "happy". But soon I could not run anymore. And I tumbled into the heart of loneliness. And I died and was reborn into an exquisite solitude and stillness. That connected me to all things. So I was not lonely, but alone with All Life. My heart One with all other hearts. Once, I ran from difficult feelings. Now, they are my advisors, confidants, friends, and they all have a home in me, and they all belong and have dignity. I am sensitive, soft, fragile, my arms wrapped around all my inner children. And in my sensitivity, power. In my fragility, an unshakeable Presence. In the depths of my wounds, in what I had named “darkness”, I found a blazing Light that guides me now in battle. I became a warrior when I turned towards myself. And started listening.  |

You may not always see the results as quickly as you expected, but as long as you are putting in efforts, your harvest will come. KEEP MAKING PROGRESS, no matter how little, your efforts are not in vain.  |

You will always have more of what you complain about, and more of what you appreciate.
|
The principle behind this is, whatever you focus on increases. I know you want more, but be grateful for the ones you have. Learn to appreciate the things you have before it becomes what you had. Don't wait to have everything you desire before you become grateful for what you have, rather be grateful for what you have so you can have everything you desire. Gratitude always leads to abundance, and ingratitude leads to scarcity.  |
