You will never be free until you free yourself from the prison of your own false thoughts.

The greatest gift you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance.

Worrying does not take away tomorrow’s troubles. It takes away today’s peace.

You can’t always please everybody, but you can do what makes you happy and just hope that those around you will be happy for you.

You will never speak to anyone more than you speak to yourself in your head. Be kind to yourself.

Single is no longer a lack of options, but a choice. A choice to refuse to let your life by defined by your relationship status but to live every day Happily and let your Ever After work itself out.

Surrender to what is. Let go of what was. Have faith in what will be.

You only have control over three things in your life—the thoughts you think, the images you visualize, and the actions you take.

It’s oversimplified to say, ‘Happiness is a choice.’ Some people are struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other conditions that make it challenging to find peace and joy. But ‘challenging’ doesn’t mean impossible. It’s more accurate to say, ‘Happiness takes lots of choices that are sometimes hard to make.’ Like: the choice to accept ourselves and our struggles, the choice to take responsibility for getting help, and the choice to do the things that are good for us, even when—especially when—we feel like giving up.

We are all capable of helping and hurting. We are all giving at times and selfish at others. Every last one of us has the potential for darkness and light. So forgive others, forgive yourself, look for light in the world, and shine your own. And never forget that people can grow and change. Never stop believing in the healing power of love and kindness. And most importantly, never stop believing in yourself.

What’s in your heart is far more important than what’s in your resume, your job description, and your bank account.

Give yourself a break. Stop beating yourself up! Everyone makes mistakes, has setbacks and failures. You don’t come with a book on how to get it right all the time. You will fail sometimes, not because you planned to, but simply because you’re human. Failure is a part of creating a great life.

Breathe. Step back. Think. Then react.

Life is short. Say what you’ve wanted to say. Do what you’ve wanted to do. Don’t wait until the only thing you can say is, ‘I wish I’d had the courage to do it sooner.’

Never tell someone who’s freaking out ‘Life is too short to worry.’ Really, think about it. You’re just giving them one more thing to worry about—that they’re missing out on life because they’re worrying. Instead, try, ‘I understand. Life can be scary. I’m here for you if you need me.’

The coolest people I’ve ever met have the most colorful pasts, they’ve lived lives of risk, made bad choices, learned lessons, explored, and they’re not afraid of being real. Tattered tapestries woven of similar threads, they’re my kind of people. My favorite shades of crazy.
