If speaking kindly to plants can help them grow, imagine what speaking kindly to humans can do.

Please remember to check in on your strong friend, your busy friend, your happy friend, your ‘seems to handle everything well’ friend.

You may not always see the results of your kindness, but every bit of positive energy you contribute to the world makes it a better place for all of us.

You can be whoever you want to be. Just be honest and kind. And be the kind of person who helps others see their worth and beauty.

Even if you’re barely holding it together or feel like you’re falling apart, you’re doing the best you can, and that’s reason to be proud.

You learn nothing from life if you think you’re right all the time.

The person who helps others simply because it should or must be done, and because it is the right thing to do, is indeed without a doubt, a real superhero.

Growth is uncomfortable because you’ve never been here before. You’ve never seen this version of you. So give yourself a little grace and breathe through it.

People will teach you how to love by not loving you back. People will teach you how to forgive by not apologizing. People will teach you kindness by their judgment. People will teach you how to grow by remaining stagnant. Pay attention when you’re going through pain and mysterious times. Listen to the wisdom life is trying to teach you.

I will never be that friend who calls you every day, but I will always be that friend you can rely on when your world collapses.

I love you. You’re probably thinking, ‘You don’t even know me.’ But if people can hate for no reason, I can love.

People will only understand you at the level they understand themselves.

Being okay if it happens and okay if it doesn’t happen is a very powerful place to be.

A history of trauma can give you a high tolerance for emotional pain. But just because you can take it doesn’t mean you have to.

I’m beginning to suspect that the second half of life is about learning to let go of everything I feverishly collected over the first half that wasn’t loving or human.

Let it hurt. Let it bleed. Let it heal. And let it go.

Be kind to past versions of yourself that didn’t know the things you know now.

Even now, as broken as you may feel, you are still so strong. There’s something to be said for how you hold yourself together and keep moving, even though you feel like shattering. Don’t stop. This is your healing. It doesn’t have to be pretty, or graceful. You just have to keep going.

Confidence isn’t thinking you’re better than anyone else, it’s realizing that you have no reason to compare yourself to anyone else.

Having a smart brain is not enough. We also need a warm heart.
