"I don’t think there’s anything sadder than when two people are meant to be together and something intervenes."

"I’m all done with hating you. It’s all washed out of me. I hate people hard, but I don’t hate them very long."

"Love appears in many ways. It doesn’t always have to be a romantic relationship to come true. Love appears in that innocent smile a baby gives you, love appears in that 2 second side hug that one person who hates hugs gives you, love appears that moment your pet sees you and their whole world dances with the sight of your face, love appears when your friend tells you to listen to a song they like, love appears when your sibling decides to tell you about their day, love appears when you’re staring at the mirror with your favorite outfit and smile at yourself because you like what you see. There are many ways other than a romantic relationship in which love appears. You just have to appreciate those little things."

"Home is not where you are from, it is where you belong. Some of us travel the whole world to find it. Others, find it in a person."

"One of my main regrets in life is giving considerable thought to inconsiderate people."

"Show strength during the toughest of times. Show courage in front of the most fearsome situations. Show love even when all else seems to be darkness."

"Sometimes it’s good to just live life silently. Pay attention to your thoughts as they come and go, and reflect upon your feelings. Sometimes being overly social can offset our inner peace."

"Go where ever it is you want to go. Travel to the places you feel calling to you. You don’t have to experience every nook and cranny on the planet, but know that each and every one is open for you to see and appreciate."

"And I began to let him go. Hour by hour. Days into months. It was a physical sensation, like letting out the string of a kite. Except that the string was coming from my center."

"I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be."
