“If you celebrate your differentness, the world will, too.
It believes exactly what you tell it—through the words you
use to describe yourself, the actions you take to care
for yourself, and the choices you make to express yourself.
Tell the world you are one-of-a-kind creation who came here
to experience wonder and spread joy.
Expect to be accommodated.”
― Victoria Moran

“When you are starting your life over, with a new sense of self,
who you once were is going to challenge you.
Who you once were is going to dangle old carrots,
old wounds and issues, in front of your face.
When that happens, you will be tempted to revert
to old feelings, old patterns of thought,
and old patterns of behavior.”
― Iyanla Vanzant, Peace from Broken Pieces

“speak quietly to yourself & promise there will be better days.
whisper gently to yourself and provide assurance that you really
are extending your best effort. console your bruised and tender
spirit with reminders of many other successes. offer comfort in
practical and tangible ways - as if you were encouraging
your dearest friend. recognize that on certain days the
greatest grace is that the day is over and you get to close your eyes.
tomorrow comes more brightly...”
― Mary Anne Radmacher
